...performance growth. Ratings against a standard do not preclude comparisons. While employees may typically compare themselves to others, there is little to be gained by having the organization promote such comparisons. They are likely to create envy, vanity and dysfunctional competition. In this case, boss lets Sandy to compare with Charlie. It may create envy, vanity and dysfunctional competition. In a healthy organization, one employee’s success need not mean another’s failure. If all can succeed, much the better. Those who prefer an absolute standard tend to give lower scores to employees, as they fear new workers who receive high marks will not feel the need for further improvement. In contrast, raters who feel a worker has done superior work considering his time in the position, may rate him as such. An evaluation six months or a year later yielding a superior mark would require a corresponding improvement on the part of the worker. I prefer the latter approach, because it seems more positive. Supervisory evaluations often suffer from rating deficiencies: • One particularly good or poor trait may contaminate other performance areas considered in the evaluation. In this case, the boss rate Sandy as average. He figures out the poor trait during the evaluation period. Sandy drops the dishes. So he gives Sandy average. It is not helpful Sandy to improve in the further. • Once a worker is classified as a poor performer, it may take a long time for a supervisor to notice...

We all start doing it from the moment we're born. And if all goes well as we grow up, we get more skilled at communicating our wants and needs, our feelings and thoughts. We also learn to interpret other people’s feelings in turn, so that in adulthood we are aware of how our behavior impacts on others. People with good interpersonal skills are easy to be around. They tend to connect with other people effortlessly, they seem to know the right things to say and they make communication in general an easy process. Interpersonal skills are one of those things that we really notice when someone lacks it. When we're in new or awkward situations or when we imagine that there are rules of behavior that everyone else seems to know but us. Mastering interpersonal skills is very essential in today’s globalized business world. As communication is the corners stones of modern business, how are we supposed to survive and thrive when we can’t communicate with our peers? Interpersonal skills are not only required for running a business but also one of the key components of performance appraisal. If any of the two parties in performance appraisal namely, appraiser or appraisee lack interpersonal skills the appraisal will not be effective. If the appraiser lack interpersonal...
