Dear Autumn Jane
Thanks for your valuable input.
Infact I am to design an appraisal method for a small business of almost 30 employees. At the moment there is nothing in place, not even JD's! hence they are facing problems as far as the business outcome is concerned.
I am to prepare JDs by interviewing and having a questionnaire filled by each position holder also. (By the way there are times when i feel some resistance from top) but nevertheless, I am progressing hopefully ...:-)
I understand that there should be a uniform appraisal system to have a committed and satisfied employee force, but i feel that BAR method is more time consuming as compared to any other method, also they will not be too supportive to sit and prepare rating scales with me.. really
As it says, 1- what to measure, 2- How to measure?
I personally wanted to have something that would not only measure the given sales targets to be achieved as an objective, but also thier competencies, such as customer service orientation, communication, coordination skills, etc. This kind of format would be for every employee, including sales, supply chain, office admin, accounts, etc.
As per your expertise, what would you suggest to be considered? I would also appreciate, if you could provide me with a specimen of such a format.
Best regards
Shab
