Motivating a Team of 70+: What Works Best in Your Experience?

I am working in a manufacturing company. There are almost 70 to 80 staff members in my company. Can anyone suggest how to motivate employees in the company?

Methods of Performance Appraisal

Can anyone tell me which method of performance appraisal is effective? Can anyone send me the format of an effective performance appraisal?

Your post is not complete enough to offer you the appropriate answer. First, you will need to describe the problem faced by your company and why it's seeking employee motivation. Additionally, please share the current performance appraisal method being followed. There is no universal format for an effective performance appraisal; you have to make it effective and implement it.

Hi, actually, there is no method to evaluate the performance of employees in my company. I want to implement an effective system of performance appraisal in my company. Can you please suggest to me which method of performance appraisal is effective?

360-Degree Performance Appraisal in Manufacturing

360-degree performance appraisal is very effective in today's scenario, but it is rarely implemented in the manufacturing industry. So, you can stick to standard performance appraisal methods.

I suggest the following:

You can appraise people based on their KRAs and behavioral competencies.
- KRAs will be their goals for the year (minimum goals could be 5 or 6).
- Behavioral competencies will measure their quality of work, job knowledge, initiative, delegation, discipline, interpersonal relations, team spirit, etc.

The KRAs will ensure they meet their work objectives, and the behavioral aspect will address their managerial aspects.

Designing an Appraisal Program

When designing an appraisal program, consider the following points:
- Formal or informal methods
- Whose performance is being evaluated
- Who the raters are
- What issues need to be addressed
- How to resolve these issues
- What to assess
- When to conduct evaluations
- What evaluation methods to use

If you search on this site, you will find numerous posts on performance appraisal. Best of luck!

You can start the appraisal process based on their output, behavior, punctuality, and mental status at work.

Please understand the business processes of your company. You will definitely be able to design your own appraisal system.

I hope this PowerPoint presentation helps you. It focuses on motivation and how to feel good about life in a more generalized manner. However, you can tailor it by incorporating specific examples that relate to your company and processes.

You can motivate your employees by arranging some functions for them on behalf of the company. Whenever an employee is in trouble, the company should take care of them. There are many more processes to consider as well.

Really, such a nice and useful article. In the market, 360-Degree Appraisal is the latest and useful tool for large manufacturing industries. However, in small organizations, it can be problematic because there are no chances of achieving a 100% successful evaluation from 360-Degree.
