Appraisal Good Practice

Murph

Hi All,

I have been reading with a great deal of interest, the debate on whether or not the annual appraisal is dead.

It seems that most people/organisations agree that their existing process is either not fit for purpose, or at least very cumbersome. I wonder then if anyone has actually come up with a workable alternative that does seem to tick the right boxes (without being a box ticking exercise)?

We currently do spend more time chasing completion, than we do on the content of the reviews. 

If anyone would love to share their best practice, or a real tangible way forward I would love to hear it.

Thanks in advance

    1. Blank sheet of paper + manager & employee
    2. Discuss work.
    3. Manager gives employee something to do - a target/objective or whatever you want to call it.
    4. Manager & Employee discuss how the target is to be met and decide what needs to be done to achieve it.
    5. Date is set for progress meeting.
    6. Para 2 is discussed again if required.
    7. Employee tells manager he/.she has reached the target/goal/etc., etc.,

    ps tick boxes are a wast of time as you know, are discredited by busy managers and in any case its really a case of:- "different strokes for different folks" (Ken Blanchard)
    No HR Involved at all with a bit of luck.
