Performance Ratings Will Be Errors Research Proposal

2. The first type of feedback -- that with respect to errors -- will come from supervisor appraisals. The supervisor is uniquely positioned to identify situations in which the generalist has erred, or failed to properly implement company policy. The supervisor has the understanding of the situations and the policies required to make the error determination. Supervisor appraisal is therefore necessary for this type of measurement.

For the second measure -- the ability to forge relationships, 360 degree feedback is the best method. This method solicits feedback from all around the employee. Given that the employee must forge relationships with and work alongside virtually all members of the organization, it is reasonable that the entire organization should contribute in some way to the performance...

In addition, there is also the question about whether a truly accurate (when negative) appraisal is the best course of action due to the possible negative consequences. Management by Objectives (MBO) Sudarsan (2009) surmises that, in the past, researchers have concluded that
