Review the following:
Chapter 9 from the course textbook, Dessler, G. Human Resource Management.
The Harvard Business Review article – The Performance Management RevolutionLinks to an external site. by Peter Cappelli and Anna Tavis.
Please review the following excerpt from the Article, “Reimagining the Performance Review” by Theresa Agovino
After an annual review that lasted about 10 minutes, a New Jersey-based account coordinator knew it was time to leave the public relations agency where he had worked for almost a year. The 25-year-old, who requested anonymity, asked for the meeting because his boss hadn’t mentioned any formal assessment process, nor had his manager ever critiqued his work. The coordinator says he sat with a trio of senior executives who didn’t ask him any questions beyond how he would rate himself. He says they ignored his requests for guidance on how to advance at the agency.
“What I was really looking for was feedback from them on how I can improve, how I can establish myself at that agency,” he says. “At the end of it, there was no mention of next steps. I was very much in the dark.”
His story is an all-too-typical example of the problems with performance reviews. Now more than ever, employees want to know where they stand and how to further their careers, but most organizations do not effectively deliver that information.
For this assignment, you will assume the role of the HR Director.
