Methods to measure performance appraisal

Traditional methods
1. Critical incident method This format of performance appraisal is a method which is involved identifying and describing specific incidents where employees did something really well or that needs improving during their performance period. 2.

3. Paired comparison analysis This form of performance appraisal is a good way to make full use of the methods of options. There will be a list of relevant options. Each option is in comparison with the others in the list. The results will be calculated and then such option with highest score will be mostly chosen. 4. Graphic rating scales This format is considered the oldest and most popular method to assess the employees performance. In this style of performance appraisal, the management just simply does checks on the performance levels of their staff. In this method, an employees quality and quantity of work is assessed in a graphic scale indicating different degrees of a particular trait. The factors taken into consideration include both the personal characteristics and characteristics related to the on the job performance of the employees. For example a trait like Job Knowledge may be judged on the range of average, above average, outstanding or unsatisfactory. 5. Essay Evaluation method In this style of performance appraisal, managers/ supervisors are required to figure out the strong and weak points of staffs behaviors. Essay evaluation method is a non-quantitative technique. It is often mixed with the method the graphic rating scale. 6. Performance ranking method

The performance appraisal of ranking is used to assess the working performance of employees from the highest to lowest levels. Managers will make comparisons of an employee with the others, instead of making comparison of each employee with some certain standards.

7. Behavioral Observation Scales The method based on the scales of observation on behaviors is the one in which important tasks that workers have performed during their working time will be assessed on a regular basis.

Straight Ranking Method This is one of the oldest and simplest techniques of performance appraisal. In this method, the appraiser ranks the employees from the best to the poorest on the basis of their overall performance. It is quite useful for a comparative evaluation.

9.

Field Review In this method, a senior member of the HR department or a training officer discusses and interviews the supervisors to evaluate and rate their respective subordinates. A major drawback of this method is that it is a very time consuming method. But this method helps to reduce the superiors personal bias.

10. Checklist

Method

The rater is given a checklist of the descriptions of the behavior of the employees on job. The checklist contains a list of statements on the basis of which the rater describes the on the job performance of the employees.
11. Forced

ranking (forced distribution)

Forced ranking is a method of performance appraisal to rank employee but in order of forced distribution. For example, the distribution requested with 10 or 20 percent in the top category, 70 or
80 percent in the middle, and 10 percent in the bottom.

The top-ranked employees are considered high-potential employees and are often targeted for a more rapid career and leadership development programs. In contrast, those ranked at the bottom are denied bonuses and pay increases. They may be given a probationary period to improve their performance.

12. Group appraisal method Under this method employees are rated by a group, consisting of their superiors who have some knowledge of their performance, the supervisor explains the group the nature of his subordinates duties the group then discuss the standard of the performance of the job. The actual performance of the employee is then matched or compared with the standard set. 13. Forced choice description method: This method was evolved after deal of research conducted for the military services during World War attempts to correct raters tendency to give consistently low or high rating to all employees. 14. Grading method: The rater considers certain factors and makes them accordingly to a scale certain categories of worth and established and carefully defined the selected features may be analytical ability, cooperation, dependability, Self-expression, leadership and organizing ability they may be an outstanding, B-very good, C- very good/average, D-fair, E-poor and F-very poor. 15. Man- to- man comparison method: This technique was used by the U.S.A army during the First World War by this method Certain factors are settled for the purpose of analysis (such as leadership, dependability)and a scale is designed by the rating for each factor are awarded to them

Modern methods

1. 360 degree performance appraisal In the formatted from of 360-degree performance appraisals, the performance of an employee will be assessed based on ideas of many other different people, for example customers, suppliers, peers and direct reports. If the assessed is a manager, his/her staff will be often asked for feedback on how that manager is doing his task. In case of using 360-degree performance appraisal, it is vital that the process be implemented by the manager of Human Resources Department so that the subordinate reviewers (or staff) are made sure that all their assessments on performance are kept anonymous.

2. Human Resource Accounting Method Human resources are valuable assets for every organization. Human resource accounting method tries to find the relative worth of these assets in the terms of money. In this method the Performance appraisal of the employees is judged in terms of cost and contribution of the employees. The cost of employees include all the expenses incurred on them like their compensation, recruitment and selection costs, induction and training costs etc. whereas their contribution includes the total value added (in monetary terms). The difference between the cost and the contribution will be the performance of the employees. Ideally, the contribution of the employees should be greater than the cost incurred on them.

3. Behaviorally anchored rating scales This formatted performance appraisal is based on making rates on behaviors or sets of indicators to determine the effectiveness or ineffectiveness of working performance. The form is a mix of the rating scale and critical incident techniques to assess performance of the staff. Behaviorally Anchored Rating Scales (BARS) is a relatively new technique which combines the

graphic rating scale and critical incidents method. It consists of predetermined critical areas of job performance or sets of behavioral statements describing important job performance qualities as good or bad (for egg. the qualities like inter personal relationships, adaptability and reliability, job knowledge etc.). These statements are developed from critical incidents. In this method, an employees actual job behavior is judged against the desired behavior by recording and comparing the behavior with BARS. Developing and practicing BARS requires expert knowledge. 4. Management By Objectives (MBO) method MBO is a method of performance appraisal in which managers or employers set a list of objectives and make assessments on their performance on a regular basis, and finally make rewards based on the results achieved. This method mostly cares about the results achieved (goals) but not to the way how employees can fulfill them.

Assessment centers

An assessment Centre typically involves the use of methods like social/informal events, tests and exercises, assignments being given to a group of employees to assess their competencies to take higher responsibilities in the future. Generally, employees are given an assignment similar to the job they would be expected to perform if promoted. The trained evaluators observe and evaluate employees as they perform the assigned jobs and are evaluated on job related characteristics. The major competencies that are judged in assessment Centres are interpersonal skills, intellectual capability, planning and organizing capabilities, motivation, career orientation etc. assessment Centres are also an effective way to determine the training and development needs

The Objectives of Performance Appraisal in Organizations

The main objective of performance appraisals is to measure and improve the performance of employees and increase their future potential and value to the company. Other objectives include providing feedback, improving communication, understanding training needs, clarifying roles and responsibilities and determining how to allocate rewards. 1) Organizational Improvement Performance appraisals are not just about the employee being appraised. Rather, they are about determining her role in the context of the people around her. By periodically assessing each employee's strengths and weaknesses, work can be assigned with regard to these strengths and weaknesses. This can in turn improve the organization's efficiency as different people are assigned work that they are best suited to. 2) Feedback Performance appraisals are also an opportunity for the employee and his supervisor to give one another honest feedback and keep the business lines of communication open. This keeps everyone abest of what is perceived to be working in the company and what is not; from this information, changes (if necessary) can be made. It is important to note that feedback goes both ways; performance appraisals are opportunities for employees to let their supervisors know what they are pleased and displeased with, but it is also an opportunity for the supervisors to tell employees where they are doing well, where they are defying expectations, and where they are falling short.

3) Career Development Frequent performance appraisal can also help the employee's career, or at least determine its direction. By conducting performance appraisals, sitting down with employees, and determining what they are contributing versus what they are consuming from a company, supervisors can make decisions regarding who should move into other positions, who should stay where they are, who should be promoted, and who should be first in line for the next round of layoffs.

Page 9

Performance appraisals, in short, help supervisors and employees determine where the employee needs to be professionally and, if they are not currently there, how they can get there as quickly and efficiently as possible.

4) Provide Feedback

The feedback received by the employee can be helpful in many ways. It gives insight to how superiors value your performance, highlights the gap between actual and desired performance and diagnoses strengths and weaknesses as wells as shows areas for improvement.

5) Improve Communication

The method of performance appraisals helps superiors strengthen relationships and improve communication with employees.

6) Training Needed

These appraisals also identify the necessary training and development the employee needs to close the gap between current performance and desired performance.

7) Clarify Expectations

Performance appraisals should clarify roles, responsibilities and expectations of all employees.

8) Allocate Rewards

Performance appraisals reduce employee grievances by clearly documenting the criteria used to make organizational decisions such as promotions, raises or disciplinary actions.

Manager and subordinate are come to meet and discuss common work related problem.

Barriers to Effectiveness

Thinking Appraisals involve confrontation because it requires facing conflict and dealing with disagreement Believing Appraisals are time- stealers Lacking a systematic format which ensures that all pertinent issues are covered so that conclusions can be accurately drawn Believing that Appraisals are futile because its your word against your employees Jumping into Money talk Absence of Regular feedback through the performance cycle Gut feeling (subjectiveness), Biases, Stereotyping, First impression Lack of follow-up Improper preparation; poor documentation Attribution - tending to see poor performance more within control of the individual and superior performance as more of an influence of external factors Contrast effect - contrasting one employee's accomplishments against another Central tendency (forced bell curve) - expecting in any group that there will be some poor employees and some great employees Regency effect: over - emphasis on recent performance Inadequately defined and/or misunderstood standards/goals Poor interviewer (poor environment, poor use of time, domineering, poor listener, etc. Conducting an "annual" review (as opposed to the ongoing review)

Methods to improve the effectiveness of performance appraisal (MBO method)

One of the major reasons for the failure of MBO in many organizations is that those in charge fail to recognize the potential character of the implement process. The fault is not in the system but in its use. As with any technique, there is a right and a wrong way to implement MBO programmers. The following suggestions would help in making use of MBO programmers properly. Organizational commitment The most effective way to implement MBO is to allow the top-level managers to explain, coordinate and guide the program. Without top management support and commitment, MBO cannot be implemented properly. MBO presents a challenging task to managers. They must feel that the program is important and will bring in results. The shift from planning for work to planning for accomplishment of specific goals is not easy. As rightly pointed out by Hampton, More often than not, probably, MBO is tried and sooner or later allowed to slip into misuse. Initial enthusiasm and good faith wane as difficulties develop. Joint goal-setting, participation in planning and decision-making processes, objective performance appraisal sessions pose several problems to managers who are wedded to old ways of thinking and action. These problems should not be allowed to kill MBO without ever being openly confronted. Managers must believe that MBO would work and must accept it as a way of thinking. As Knootz pointed out, it is essential that an effective program of managing by objective must be woven into an entire pattern and style of managing. It cannot work as a separate technique standing alone. MBO should not be used as a decorative piece. If it does not have the active support, involvement and commitment of top managers, it should not be installed at all. Training MBO is not a superfluous ritual which can be finished off as quickly as possible. It calls for precise, concrete thinking. Managers should be given adequate training in MBO philosophy and procedures before the system is installed. They must be in a position to integrate the technique with the basic company philosophy. Under an authoritarian, threatening, mistrustSMV beverages Pvt. Ltd., Odisha (An unit of Pepsi-co Limited, India)

Page 14

ful climate, MBO proves to be a fruitless exercise. A plant must have the right soil and cl imate if it is to thrive. Similarly MBO demands a healthy atmosphere where its philosophy is understood and the techniques are properly applied. Drawing the curtain between fuzzy wishes and specific objectives, arranging practice sessions where performance objectives are evaluated, measuring performance and checking deviations all these activities do not come by easily. The subordinates as well as the superiors must be taught how to set realistic goals and familiarized with the results for which they are to be held responsible. Adequate time and resources A well-conceived MBO program cannot be installed overnight. It may take three to five years of operation before the MBO program is yielding fruitful results. Implementing an MBO program is quite often time consuming and managers must have the necessary time and resources to utilize it. They must allocate adequate time and resources to educate each person in the organization in the nature and philosophy of the system. It is no use looking to MBO for instant solutions. Take care of the necessary mechanics One reason why MBO programs fail is that they are not integrated or institutionalized into the real planning and control activities. Setting goals is only part of the story; goals must be supported by control activities also. It is important to assign authority and responsibility for initiating and overseeing the MBO program. The persons who administer the program must be endowed with sufficient power not only to punish but also reward people promptly. It is always better to clarify responsibility and authority relationships so that everyone in the organization understands what is expected in the MBO system. A guideline manual of procedures may be adopted so as to ensure clarity and facilitate the goal-setting and performance appraisal activities. Timely feedback Monitor MBO as it is put to use. This process reveals opportunities for feedback, counseling and encouragement to subordinates at other than regular performance appraisal sessions. In many cases, as Koontz pointed out, the superior simply sits back and forgets that periodic review, counsel and control are mandatory to the programs success. The subordinate, lacking

Page 15

in such direction, often, turns in a mediocre performance. Congratulations and encouragement from superiors who back up their words with pay raises and promotions would motivate subordinates to peak performance. Again, while comparing the actual progress of MBO with the planned progress, the manager should avoid the tendency to be overly critical with those subordinates who are lower in ability, lack confidence or are less motivated. Politics Be sensitive to the politics of implementing MBO, MBO redistributes power and not all managers welcome this. If MBO is seen as a significant change, it will generate hostile reaction in the form of jokes, infighting and overt conflict. MBO can also alter the status of an organization, can influence decisions, can affect budgets and can promote creation of coalitions to fight with it. MBO, as Odiorne pointed out, has failed in many organizations because managers quite often ignored these political considerations in the process of implementation.

Methods to know the effectiveness of performance appraisal

All these traditional methods and modern methods which are already discussed on above are some of the tools which are used to improve the organizational performance. So we can know that weather these measures are useful or not by watching the organizational performance and improperness. Organizational performance can be watched by some others tools. Those are Productivity Organizational effectiveness Organizational ranking Productivity Productivity is defined as the overall output of goods or services produced divided by the inputs needed to generate that output. Organizations strive to be productive. They want the most goods and services produced using the least amount of inputs. Output is measured by the sales revenue an organization receives when those goods and services are sold (selling price x number sold). Input is measured by the costs of acquiring and transforming the organizational resources into the outputs. Its managements job to increase productivity by reducing the input cost and increasing the output price (selling price). Doing this means being more efficient in performing the organizations work activities. So, organizational productivity becomes a measure of how efficiently employees do their work. We are increasing our companys capability by increasing the capability of our employees. Ford was investing in its future productivity by making employees more efficient in their job-related use of the Internet, said the Chief Information Officer of Ford Motors. Organizational Effectiveness Management researchers have suggested other descriptions of organizational effectiveness. For instance, the systems resource model or organizational effectiveness proposes that effectiveness is measured by the organizations ability to exploit its environment in acquiring scarce and valued resources. The process model emphasizes the transformation processes of SMV beverages Pvt. Ltd., Odisha (An unit of Pepsi-co Limited, India)

Page 17

the organization and how well the organization converts inputs into desired outputs. Then, finally, the multiple constituencies model says that several different effectiveness measures should be used, reflecting the different criteria of the organizations constituencies. For example, customers, advocacy groups, suppliers, and security analysts each would have their own measures of how well the organization was performing. Although each of these different effectiveness models may have merit in measuring certain aspects of organizational effectiveness, the bottom line for managers continues to be how well the organization accomplishes its goals. Thats what guides managerial decisions in designing strategies, work processes, and work activities, and in coordinating the work of employees. Organizational Ranking Ranking of Industries is determined by specific performance measures. For instance, Fortunes Top Performing Companies of the Fortune 500 are determined by financial results including, profits, return on revenue, and return on shareholders equity; growth in profits for 1 year, 5 years, and 10 years; and revenues per employee, revenues per dollar of assets, and revenues per dollar of equity. Industry Weeks Best Managed Plants are determined by organizational accomplishments and demonstrations of superior management skills in the areas of financial performance, innovation, leadership, globalization, alliances and partnerships, employee benefits and education, and community involvement. Thus, different agencies apply different parameters or measures through which performance of organizations is decided to rank the Industry/organization.

Peter F. Drucker the well-known management guru was of the view that an organizations employees need to see the connection between what they do and the outcomes. He said, The focus of the organization must be on performance The spirit of organization is high performance standards, for the group as well as for each individual. But before employe es can see this connection and work toward achieving high performance, managers need to specify the performance outcomes that will be measured. The most frequently used organizational performance measures include organizational productivity, organizational effectiveness, and industry rankings.

An Overview of the Soft Drink Industry In Soft Drink Industry in India


What is a soft drink? A soft drink is a non-alcoholic beverage which is artificially flavored and contains no fruit or pulp. India with a population of more than 1.1 billion is potentially one of the largest consumer markets in the world after china. The consumer market is popularly known as the FMCG market or the fast moving consumer goods market. Soft drinks come under this category. Soft drink is basically purchased in India basically for two reasons namely to quench thirst and for refreshment. The Indian economy currently is passing through a bullish phase with increasing per capita income. Subsequently the lifestyle of the Indian consumer is also changing with increased spending on entertainment, refreshment etc. that is why soft drink companies are looking forward to India with great enthusiasm in the future to increase their revenue.

The soft drink industry in India dates back to the 1940s when Parle introduced the first branded soft drink called gold spot. Cola giant Coca-Cola was the first foreign soft drink company to setup its shop in India in 1965. Coca-Cola made a very good beginning and dominated the market right from the word go. It faced no competition at that time. The marketing people did not even need to publicize Coca-Cola. This extraordinary success of Coca-Cola can be attributed to the following factors: Absence of contemporary competitive brand. The giant image of Coca-Cola in the western countries preceded their entry into the Indian market, and Indians at that time were very fond of foreign goods.

SMV beverages Pvt. Ltd., Odisha (An unit of Pepsi-co Limited, India)

Page 20

Parle Exports Pvt. Ltd later introduced a lemon flavored soft drink called Limca in 1970. Before this they had introduced a cola flavored drink called pepping which they had to withdrew in the face of stiff competition from Coca-Cola. But the overtly conservative Indian government of that time with special interest in safe guarding the interest of the Indian companies started insisting that Coca-Cola should agree on the following points in order to continue in India. Coca-Cola decided to windup its operations in 1977 rather than bowing to the Indian government. The main demands of the Indian government were: Dilution of equity, as the government felt that lots of foreign currency was being wasted. Manufacturing of the secret concentrate in India. Disclosure of the chemical composition of the concentrate. The exit of Coca-Cola left a large vacuum in the soft drink market. But this also accelerated the growth of several Indian soft drinks. Many new soft drinks like fruity, jump-in etc. were launched in the form of tetra pack. However the bottling plants and the distribution networks of these companies were not up to the mark and left much to be desired. It took these companies almost one year to come up with new flavors like Campo Cola, Rush etc. to survive in the industry. However Parley, the pioneer in the soft drinks market blazed its way to national prominence with their product Thumps Up bearing the slogan happy days are here again which became a craze. This particular slogan helped to win over the loyalists of Coca-Cola who were in a state of cola shock or cola depression! Soon the soft drink industry started registering phenomenal growth rates and all parley products namely Gold Spot, Limca and Thumps Up became the brand leaders in their own segments. In spite of this the soft drink market had a huge untapped potential. 1990 saw the coming of the multinational brand Pepsi and immediately started giving stiff competition to Parley and Coke. The parent company of Pepsi was founded in 1890 at North Carolina in USA. Its CEO is Roger Enrico. PepsiCo India Holdings Pvt. Ltd. in headquartered in Gurgaon and its CEO is Mr. Rajiv Bakshi. In India it has 34 bottling plants of which 8 are company owned bottling outlets (COBO) and 26 are franchise owned bottling outlet (FOBO). SMV Beverages Pvt. Ltd. is a franchise owned bottling outlet. Coca-Cola reentered the Indian market in 1993 in collaborations with Parley India Ltd. The product profile of both Pepsi and Coca-Cola is as follows:SMV beverages Pvt. Ltd., Odisha (An unit of Pepsi-co Limited, India)

Corporate Social Responsibility


Most of the bottling plants of Pepsi are located in the backward areas thereby giving huge employment opportunities in these areas. Pepsi is a responsible company undertaking many social projects in and around the bottling plants. These include supports to the education centers, sponsoring inoculation camps, providing free health checkups, and sanitation drives etc. Recent happenings: - Soft drinks emerged strongly than ever from the pesticides contamination controversy in the late 2003, and the early monsoons in the mid-2004 in many regions of India, that at one point threatened to derail growth in 2004. responding to a series of initiatives throughout 2004, such as reducing pack sizes, introducing new flavors, increasing points of sale, positioning on the current health boom and taking advantage of changing consumer preferences (especially of the teenagers) the total volume of the soft drinks sold in 2004 exceeded four billion liters, registering a robust growth rate of 16%. This can be largely attributed to the small pack sizes and the intensification of rural distribution. The Rs.5 strategy for small packs delivered significant off-trade volume growth and opened new possibilities in rural India, but proved to be unviable in the long run, with both the companies raising the prices to Rs.6 in the latter half of 2004.

However the scenario has changed in the last one year i.e., 2005. Hefty advertising budgets and film star brand ambassadors notwithstanding, cola majors PepsiCo and Coca-Cola are recording flat sales with low single digit volume and value growth for this year. This has been attributed to last years price hike to Rs. 7 and a consumer shift towards non-carbonated beverages, like fresh fruit juice, milk, packaged juice and flavored drinks. Sales of both Pepsi and Coke have been 50% less this year because of the price hike. Other categories like juices are being pushed by traders and importers as margins for these are about 10-15% compared with the 5-8% margins they get for colas. As a result last year consumption rose to 250 million crates and has stagnated ever since. As a matter of fact sales have gone down by almost 10% in the three months ending March 31, 2006. With the growth of its flagship brand Pepsi stagnating, the company is upping spends on the promotions to revamp other brands. Its also shifting focus to other categories. It has recently launched Diet Pepsi and the company is attempting to rope in more consumers by bringing in the price down. More recently, the company had revamped its 600 ml 7up bottle with Mallika Sherawat as the brand ambassador to go with its new trendy looking bottle. One of the areas of concern is that Indias per capita consumption of cola remains at 10 servings per year (that is, each person has a cola about 10 times every year). For Pakistan and Sri Lanka it is 25 and 30 respectively! Vice president (Marketing) of PepsiCo Vipul Prakash recently told ET that this is a matter of concern for the company and it is focusing on this issue.

For the summer of 2006 the company is focusing on home consumption a category which has been growing since the past two-three years- for which Pepsi has started its Pepsi TV campaign. Packaging in the soft drinks market is witnessing a gradual shift towards the nonreturnable (PET and cans) as consumer preferences and lifestyles change. Preempting the migration to non-returnable, Pepsi India expects to see more cans and PET bottles in the market. The company expects 15% reduction in the share of glass bottles from the current 65%. Likewise arch rivals Coca-Cola India is not far behind in lapping up the growth in the PET model and expects the category to do well in the future. This is a sign of an emerging economy. Likewise cans are the mainstay as far as packaging models go internationally. Cans still now have been expensive due to the lack of capacity in the aluminum can industry because of which everything has to be imported, which make cans expensive. However PepsiCo feels that gradually the convenience factor will overtake the value factor and thats when cans and other non-returnable modes of packaging will be most preferred for local consumers.

A very busy as well as hectic schedule was prevalent which an obstruction was.
