How Do You Include Soft Skills in Performance Appraisals? Seeking Your Advice!

Hi All,

Can somebody help me in making some soft skill parameters in the performance appraisal sheet? Kindly assist me.

Hi,

I'm new to this, but as I'm doing a project on this, I'm trying to help you. Parameters for soft skills can be:

1. Communication skills - oral and written
2. Attendance and punctuality or how successful in meeting deadlines
3. Resilience: ability to cope with pressure
4. Concern towards safety issues, credibility/ethics: shows honesty or not
5. Response to supervision: seeks counsel to improve, makes consistent efforts to improve or improves only when counseled or fails to carry out suggestions, etc.

Hope this helps. Cheers,
Amrita

The following is the list of Assessment of personal and Job attributes:

- Leadership Skills
- Planning Skills
- Decision Making Ability
- Problem Solving Skills (analytical/conceptual abilities)
- Communication Skills (written/verbal/listening)
- Willingness to take responsibilities and ability to stretch oneself
- Initiative and Energy levels
- Involvement and ownership of work
- Coordination Skills
- Creativity (Thinking and application)
- Punctuality, sincerity, and responsiveness (understanding management structure)

For the assessment part, soft skills normally play a 30% role. Also, you can select any 5-6 most relevant and important attributes as applicable within the individual roles.
