Appraisal systems

Adrian Furnham

A chapter in The Talented Manager, 2012, pp 46-48 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract In 1957, Douglas McGregor wrote an article in the Harvard Business Review that was rather sceptical of appraisal systems. In it, he argued that they had three basic aims: to provide data to make better “people” decisions (salary, promotion, success, transfer); to let employees know how they were doing (and what to do differently); and to be a means of coaching and development.
