  6. Problems in Performance Appraisal Ratings • Overly lenient • Overly harsh • Consistently rating employees as average when they deserve a higher or lower rate • Influenced by the halo effect • Judging more favorably the employees whose attitudes resemble those of the rater • The potential to be lenient when pay raises and promotions depend on appraisal ratings

  7. Methods of Performance Appraisals: • Comparative standards - Simple ranking - Paired comparison - Forced distribution • Absolute standards - Critical incidents - Graphic rating scale - BARS - 360 degree feedback

  8. Summary of an effective Performance Appraisal • Both the supervisor and employee should prepare for the • performance appraisal interview • Supervisor should encourage the employee to participate in the performance interview through the following ways: - tell-and sell - tell-and-listen - problem-solving - mixed interview • Supervisor should focus on the total performances of the employee, not just the negative • Supervisor should base the performance evaluation on the entire appraisal period rather than on the most recent behaviors of the employee • Supervisor should focus on the present qualities of the employee’s performance. Past performance ratings should not influence current ratings
