Performance-appraisal systems can become a key component of a business’s performance-management program. It works not only as an evaluative process but also serves as an organizational communication tool. Though detested by employees and employers, performance management conducted with effective participation and with appropriate mindset, accomplishes the same goals, and more. Performance management also supplies additional advantages to the manager, the employee and the organization who seek performance evaluation.
