The balanced scorecard was developed by Robert Kaplan and David Norton. It
brings the linkages among financial, customer, processes and learning. Learning
and people management contribute to the enhancement of internal processes.
Inter processes (product development, services development etc.) are critical for
enhancing customer satisfaction and loyalty. Customer satisfaction leads to
customer value creation, which drives financial performance and profitability.
360 degree feedback was initiated by the US armed forces was back in the
1940s. However, it caught the attention of the administrator s and HR managers,
who were concerned with the authenticity of the feedback coming from a single
source. Known as the multi- rater appraisal, it is provided by the immediate
supervisor, the employee himself /herself, the peer group and the people
reporting to the individual whose appraisal is being conducted. 360 refers to the
360 degrees in a circle. The basic idea is to seek feedback from a variety of
sources so that the individual biases in the appraisal are controlled. Sometimes,
the appraisal also sought from the customers particularly for those employees
who directly deal with the end users of the products and services of the
organizations. The value of the 360 degree appraisal lies in generating data that
could be relied on for developmental efforts of the employees. It offers the
following benefits:
5. It also encourages open feedback, which gives new insights regarding the
employees.
7. The knowledge about the strength and potential of its workforce can
provide valuable support to the organisation to help it market the skill of
its employees.
PERFORMANCE INTERVIEW:
Once appraisal has been made of employees, the rater should discuss and
review the performance with the ratee, so that they will receive feedback about
where they stand in the eyes of the superior. Feedback is necessary to affect
improvement in performance, especially when it is adequate. Specifically
performance interview has three goals;
1. To change behavior of employees whose performance does not meet
manner.
3. To recognize superior performance behaviors so that they will be
continued.
The data thus collected will be useful in the following areas of HRM:
PO TENTIAL APPRAISAL
1. ROLE DESCRIPTIONS
A good Potential Appraisal System would be based on the clarity of roles
and the functions associated with them in the organization. This requires
extensive job descriptions to be available for each job. These job
descriptions should spell out the various functions involved in performing
the jobs.
3. INDICATOR OF QUALITIES
A good Potential Appraisal System, besides listing the functions and
qualities, would also have various mechanisms of judging these qualities in a
given individual. Some of the mechanisms of judging these qualities are:
a) Rating by others
b) Psychological tests
c) Simulation games and exercises
d) Performance appraisal records
Career:
"Course or progress through life (or a distinct portion of life)".
How any individual’s work life develops over time and how it is perceived by
that person?
Only the person himself or herself can judge the success in his or her career.
Different people use different criteria to make this judgment.
Career Path
A planned, logical progression of jobs within one or more professions
throughout working life. A career path can be planned with greater assurance in
market conditions of stability and little change. In times of great change and
uncertainty, there is no longer such a thing as a planned career path instead
experts place greater emphasis on the importance of Career Path Development
in order to maintain employability. The development depends on a variety of
factors like personal capabilities, skills, experience and the opportunities
available for training and advancement.
