'Basics of Performance Appraisal' is an excellent document shared by Mr Sudhakara Reddy. My sincerest compliments to the author.
For the HR community it is very important to understand how to effectively deploy Performance Appraisal Systems in their own organizations. If we feel that all aspects described in the above document can be managed manually, we probably have some technology phobia. Otherwise, state of the art systems such as 'EmpXtrack' provide a ready made platform to manage all aspects of employee performance. Those interested to improve the efficiency of their existing appraisal, goal setting & competency management processes may visit the Empxtrack web site.
A real good article which covers all areas of performance management.
