Explain the following techniques in performance appraisal:

1. Paired comparisons
2. Graphic rating scales
3. Critical incidents
4. Behaviorally anchored rating scales
5. Management by objective

You should discuss their principles, application, and relative merits. Can someone give me information for this question? I really need your help.

Dear Friend,

Everything is available on the Internet. For instance, in response to your query on MBO, I obtained authentic information from Wikipedia for MBO, which is as follows:

Management by Objectives (MBO) is a process of defining objectives within an organization so that management and employees agree on the objectives and understand what they need to do in the organization. The term "management by objectives" was first popularized by Peter Drucker in his 1954 book 'The Practice of Management'.

The essence of MBO is participative goal setting, choosing courses of action, and decision-making. An important part of MBO is the measurement and comparison of the employee's actual performance with the standards set. Ideally, when employees are involved in goal setting and selecting the course of action to be followed by them, they are more likely to fulfill their responsibilities.

Graphic Rating Scales

Definition of the rating scales:
- The Rating Scale is a form on which the manager simply checks off the employee's level of performance.
- This is the oldest and most widely used method for performance appraisal.
- The scales may specify five points, so a factor such as job knowledge might be rated 1 (poorly informed about work duties) to 5 (has complete mastery of all phases of the job).

Hence, please take the time to search the internet, input your query in the web browser on the topics you desire, and there you are!

Best of luck
