(Signature
Assignment: Oral Communications, Introduced Level)
For this assignment, view the video, which immediately
follows. The video explains an exciting new performance appraisal approach
where 50% of the appraisal focuses on past performance, and 50% on goal setting
for the future. This is a program called “Full Cycle Performance” which was
recently rolled out at the University of North Carolina Wilmington. This system
devotes time also to the setting of SMART goals. Unfortunately, many appraisal
systems in organizations today do not give enough attention to goal-setting and
future goal achievement.
The Full Cycle Performance is adaptable to all
organizations.
