Overview: Performance appraisals are supposed to provide feedback on results - what worked and what did not, to motivate employees to engage in the right behaviors to perform better, to provide development opportunities to perform better the next time, to distinguish the top performers from the poor ones, provide the framework for termination decisions based on poor performance, to foster communications between the manager and employee and to set expectations for the job. In reality, however, we often find the opposite. Performance appraisals often get a bad wrap because the review cycle typically occurs only once a year and is backward-looking. They tend to focus the end results without focusing on the means to get there and how to move forward.
