Effective Performance Management
Appraisal Methods – Traditional vs. Modern
Approaches
For the Week 8 Assignment, you are tasked
with drafting a research paper of at least five (5) full pages of content for
an organization of at least 1,000 employees. The topic for this assignment is
effective performance appraisal methods. For this assignment, you are the
corporate HR compensation manager. As such, you oversee job evaluation and
classification, performance measurement, and compensation. For purposes of
your
research, you may choose from three different industries:
1.
Manufacturer of Kitchen Appliances
2.
Fast Food Franchise – Deli Sandwiches
3.
Information Technology – HR Software
Based on the industry selected, consider
three or more job categories most commonly
employed at your organization.
Based on these job categories, which performance
appraisal methodology would
be appropriate, in your opinion, for each job category
identified and why?
Whatever you decide, you must explain your choice(s) by job
category and justify your answer(s). Your choices are:
Traditional Methods of Performance
Appraisal
Critical incident Method
Forced Choice or Ranking Method
Free Form Essay Method
Graphic Rating Scales
Paired Comparison Method
Modern Methods of Performance Appraisal
360-Degree Feedback
Assessment Centers
Behaviorally Anchored Rating Scales
(BARS)
Management by Objectives (MBO)
Self-Evaluation
To be successful, students are required
to research and evaluate each of the typical
performance appraisal methods
listed above. Bear in mind that there is “no one size fits
all” performance
appraisal method for an organization. Performance appraisal methods used by
organizations depend on the industry, the internal classification of the
jobs, and
the use of performance measurement systems in determining one’s
level of productivity and, in turn, level of compensation. Thus, one’s
eligibility for recognition and financial
reward(s) depends largely on the
performance measurement process selected by an
organization. This is because
an organization hires employees in a variety of job
categories, some of which
are hourly, while others fall into technical, professional, or
management
jobs. As such, performance appraisal methods will vary in order to capture
the most realistic performance appraisal elements that would apply for a
given position.
Helpful Tips:

and opinions with independent research, and
include at least five (5)
supporting references or sources (Note: do not use dictionaries,
encyclopedias, Wikipedia, unknown, undated, or anonymous sources, such
as brief
articles from websites or URLs). In addition, due to the dynamic
nature of HRM, your
references must be drawn from peer-reviewed journal
articles published within the last
five (5) years.
