Introduction
Performance Management
Performance management is a total process of setting goals, training
employees, and then appraising and rewarding them. The process helps
employers to ensure that employees are working towards the companys goal.
It also implies that employees must make continuous improvement [2].
Every manager is responsible to manage the performance of his
subordinates. HR specialists support managers in this role.
There is no such thing as a perfect performance management system as
while an appraisal system can be well designed, the execution is
dependent on heads of departments, managers and superiors in an
organization.

Assign specific goals: Employees who are given specific goals perform
better than those who are not
Assign measurable goals: Goals set in absolute terms (e.g. an average
daily output of 300 units) are less confusing than goals set in relative
terms (e.g. improve production by 20%)
Assign challenging but doable goals: Goals should be realistic and
challenging but not impossible

Comparative Procedures
Compare subordinates where they can be ranked or listed in order from
the best down the weakest performer.
Easy to administer and tie to rewards but may not provide information to
help employees improve their performance unless used in combination
with other methods.
Trait Rating Scales

Rating scales are used to measure a number of criterias such as
personality traits, behaviors, output or a combination of these criterias.
To help appraisers, some companies provide descriptions of acceptable
and unacceptable behaviors.
