This is the title of our latest white paper.  Here, I've provided the introduction and structure of that paper.  Please download our performance appraisal white paper if this looks of interest to you.

Introduction

Performance appraisals promote a lot of commentary. Most commentators propose one solution and suggest all others are wrong (and invariably suggest that all managers are evil). In this white paper we have taken a different route. We are not without opinion, however our most common finding having worked with a large number of clients is that performance appraisals are generally a good thing but what works for one client does not
work for the other. A dogmatic approach to performance appraisals is likely to leave you unable to implement anything.

Structure

So, this white paper works by first giving some background on each topic area, some thoughts, even some suggested reading, and then it lays out the decisions you should be making. We believe this route ensures that a well-considered performance appraisal is implemented but does not pretend to know what the best appraisal process is for you.

The document is structured in the order that we would recommend you think about performance appraisals. You don't have to but its the way we work!
