Performance Appraisal
• Mutual, ongoing evaluation of employees in order to meet the strategic goals of the organization.
• A sound basis for improving, reviewing and evaluating organizational performance.
• 3 steps of appraisal process:– Gathering the information. – Evaluating information in context of organizational needs. – Communicating information between employees and supervisors.
Purposes
Administrative purposes
• Compensation decisions • Promotion, layoff, transfer decisions• HR planning • “Paper trail”
Developmental purposes
• Performance feedback • Possibility to improve job performance• Eliminate problems• Set new goals
Key principles
Performance appraisal has a capability of influencing employee behaviorand therefore improve organizational performance. Encourage continuous feedback and employee coaching.

Problems
• Lack of top-management support.
• Appraisal can become a source of friction for managers and employers.
• Unclear performance standards by which to evaluate.
• Rater bias.
Problems (cont.)
• Too many forms to complete becomes time and energy consuming, and frustrating.
• Employees questioning fairness of system.
• Traditionally just quantitative aspects considered, qualitative more difficult to measure.
A formal approach
To determine the contributions of each individual it is necessary to havea formal appraisal program with clearly stated objectives.
Performance standards that are• Reliable.• Strategically relevant.• Free from contamination and criterion deficiency.
are essential foundations for evaluation.
Mutuality: Employees and supervisors participate equally and actively in the process (e.g. mutual establishment of performance expectations)
Cultural considerations
• Finnish people tend to avoid negative feedback.
• Most of them also do not like to discuss their personal characteristics with others.
• Russian and Baltic are slightly different from Finns??
Legal considerations
Appraisal systems must comply with national laws:
• Appraisals subject to same validity criteria as selection procedures.
• Important to have clearly defined and measurable performance standards.
• Performance ratings job-related.
• Appraisal should be discussed openly with employees.
• Finland has strong labor unions.

• Rating Methods
• Trait Approaches
• Behavioral Approaches
• MBO
Trait Approaches
• Trait Approaches:
• Mixed-Standard Scale Method / Forced-Choice Method
• Not conform with Finnish culture
• Essay Method
• Time-consuming to use
• Costly
• Quality influenced by writing-skills of appraiser
• Subjective
• Graphic Rating Scale
• Less subjective bias
• Degree of performance dimension is less offensive
Example Graphic Rating Scale
C- Critically important
I – Important
N – Not appliable
E – Exceeds requirements
M – Meets requirements
O – Opportunity for development
Decision Making:
• Makes timely and effective decisions
• Considers broader impact of alternatives
• Delegates appropriately
C I N E M O
Communication:
• Listens well
• Communicates effectively
• Gives clear and concrete oral instructions
C I N E M O
Behavioral Methods
• Critical Incident Methods
• Only considers unusual success & failure (”Black Book-Approach”)
• Behaviorally Anchored Rating Scale (BARS) / Behavior Observation
Scales (BOS)
• Time-consuming
• Costly to develop
• Potential for rating errors

Definition of goals
• Employee and supervisor decide mutually on expectations for the employee’s performance:
• Define roles and accountabilities, including whether they are individual, joint or team.• Develop objectives that are closely tied to department goals• Clarify performance dimensions• Set interim review dates• Agree on who will provide supplemental input
Questions to consider: How can I improve my contribution to department goals? What objectives will maximize my contribution? Who can help me achieve my objectives? Whom do I interact with?
