Performance appraisals are one of the most important, continuous responsibilities of a supervisor...and the most dreaded. This book takes you through the entire process of conducting a productive and meaningful performance appraisal -- without the usual tension, anxiety, and uncertainty that most managers encounter in this process.

Emphasizing the importance of providing employees with positive feedback, the authors break the process down into several steps -- with detailed coverage of:

• The planning, preparation, and writing of the performance appraisal form.
• All aspects of the actual face-to-face meeting for the performance evaluation.
• Legal issues that surround every performance evaluation.
• Sure ways to protect the interests of the evaluator and the company.

No stone in the performance appraisal is left unturned and no loophole is left unexplored. This book eliminates the stress and uncertainty of the performance appraisal process, making it the most powerful management tool you can use to create confident, motivated, and productive employees.
