12/18/09 Tip of the Week: Performance Appraisals: Tip 1 – Don’t forget about performance planning.


Many managers spend more time on the actual performance appraisal of an employee than they do on the initial performance planning and ongoing performance communication. This is a mistake and will always lead to a poor appraisal interaction. The performance appraisal is merely the end of an ongoing process. More attention should be given to employee development and preventing performance problems rather than merely evaluating at the end of the year. This will also make the appraisal easier to give and more comfortable for the employee to receive. And, it will also greatly reduce if not eliminate surprises.
