In most companies, performance appraisal is typically based on the boss's perception and budget allocation. Various mathematical and bell curve statistics are often used to ensure that rewards are allocated to please the boss.
My Suggestion for a Better Appraisal Design
1. Establish a well-informed and measured Key Performance Measurement (KPM) system for all employees.
2. Set targets based on the KPM and conduct regular reviews.
3. Evaluate performance based on the achievements in alignment with agreed KPMs.
In conclusion, appraisals should be conducted based on agreed Key Performance Measures (KPMs).

Key Components of a Good Appraisal Format
In a good appraisal format, apart from employees' details, the format should be devised by incorporating the following details:
1. KRAs/KPAs laid down for the current year under review.
2. KRAs/KPAs to be laid down for the next year.
3. Achievements made for the current year under review.
4. Shortfalls, if any.
5. Areas where the employee is required to give more focus.
6. Identification of training needs (TNI).

Hello Everyone, I am an HR professional at a startup. My CEO has tasked me with planning for performance reviews. I am new to this process. My understanding is that we need to gather feedback from managers, peers, and conduct self-assessments.
Allocation of Weights and Calculating Total Score
I am unsure about how to allocate weights to these feedback sources and how to calculate the total score from them. Is there a guide that I can refer to for assistance?
Implementing a 360-Degree Feedback System
Additionally, if we decide to implement a 360-degree feedback system, are there any free tools available that can provide graphical representations of the results?

Dear Jidnyasa-Nashikkar, Good to note that you wish to conduct the "Performance Review" (PR) of the employees. However, we need to be clear on the parameters on which the performance will be reviewed. You need to communicate those parameters at the beginning of the performance cycle. The PR cannot be done as an afterthought.
Designing the KRA
While designing the KRA, one must be absolutely clear as to what needs to be increased or decreased. Please note that the sentences used in the Job Description (JD) are different from the KRA and KPI. Please watch the video on YouTube which I uploaded about nine years ago.
In this thread, refer to the post Sl No 2. I have provided several links. Go through the links and apprise yourself of the process of establishing the PMS in your company.
Thanks,

Dear HR Fraternity, I am writing to request a KRA (Key Result Area) & KPI (Key Performance Indicator) template. I am in the process of developing a performance management system for my company and would like to use a KRA & KPI format, which will be used to measure and evaluate employee performance. Your help in providing the necessary template would be highly appreciated.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

Hi all, I work in a startup, and I am the only HR here. Currently, I am designing the performance appraisal process for our IT services company and need some guidance. Based on my understanding, I have outlined the following pointers for the process:
1. Appraisal review period - Jan to Dec
2. Increment/Promotion timeline - Increment/Promotion will be effective on April 1st as we need to wait until the end of March to check the company's financial situation.
3. Appraisal process initiation - The appraisal process can start in January to allow enough time for completion and review.
4. Challenge with new joiners - How can we ensure a fair assessment of their eligibility for the annual appraisal?
5. Biannual appraisals proposal - I have also proposed biannual appraisals where only feedback is shared by the manager, focusing on performance review and goal setting for the next 6 months.
Please provide guidance on this matter.
Thanks,
