360- Degree Feedback

Types of Performance Parameters ØResults-based (results-oriented): measure the results produced by the employee ØUses Use it where results matter

ØChallenges 1. results arrived may not be obvious for all jobs. 2. Some results may not be under the employee’s control 3. May introduce ‘results at all cost’ mentality. 4. May interfere with teamwork 5. Effective feedback difficult.

Types of Performance Parameters ØBehavior-based (behavior-oriented): measure the employee’s behaviors making it easier to provide detailed feedback ØUses Use it where how the employee produces results matters

Types of Performance Parameters 

Behavior-based (cont’d.):



Challenges Difficult to capture the full range of relevant behaviors Different behaviors can lead to the same results — do we always care which behaviors were used?

Types of Performance Parameters 

Trait-based (trait-oriented): measure the employee’s abilities and other personal characteristics



Challenges Poor reliability & validity Weak linkages with job effectiveness Measurement subject to biases (racism, sexism) Difficult to provide effective feedback

PM Appraisal Methods

Objective Measures 

Objective Measures: measure performance in terms of things we can see and count ◦ Production measures: count units produced ◦ Sales measures: count sales ◦ Personnel data: count things in the employee’s personnel file, such as: Number of times late to work Number of times absent Number of disciplinary actions taken

Objective Measures (cont’d.) ◦ Performance tests: evaluate a sample of the employee’s work ◦ Business unit performance measures: Examples: Stock price Market share Profit measures: profits, return on sales, return on assets, return on equity

Uses For managers with business unit responsibility

Subjective measures 

Measure performance using human judgments ◦ Ranking: subjectively rank employees from best to worst ◦ Paired Comparisons: in all possible pairs of employees, subjectively rate which employee is better

Subjective measures (cont’d.) ◦ Rating scale (graphic rating scale): subjectively rate the employee’s performance on a labeled numeric measuring scale 

Uses

◦ Used to rate overall job performance as well as specific aspects of job performance



Challenges Forced distribution: evaluator must place a fixed percentage of employees in each performance category

Performance Appraisal Methods 

Subjective measures (cont’d.) ◦ Behavioral Observation Scales (BOS): evaluators rate the frequency with which an employee engages in specific behaviors ◦ Weighted checklist: from a list of possible employee behaviors, check off the ones that apply to the employee

Management By Objectives (MBO) ØInvolves employee in setting goals ØMeasurable goals ØChallenging but realistic, difficult but achievable ØAt the end of period, review if the goal has been achieved

Latest/recent trends in PM Recent research reveals that the majority of organizations are utilizing performance management systems / performance management software and many are in the process of revamping their first generation systems. According to Development Dimensions International (DDI), performance management systems are active in 91% of 3,600+ organizations . Performance Management - Current Trends:Strategic HR - The Link Between Employee Performance Management and Organizational Performance
