Book Description:

"Most managers cringe at the thought of judging their subordinates. This book provides a fair and effective approach to that most difficult of all managerial tasks: the performance appraisal. Featuring a three-step process that encourages collaborative planning and appraisal meetings (rather than nerve-racking confrontations), the book helps readers to:

* relieve anxiety--for themselves and employees *

structure the appraisal session so it elicits the

subordinate's input * strengthen relationships * set

short and long-term goals * handle problems and

""sticky"" subjects such as promotions and

disagreements

This concise guide contains many easy-to-use tools, including sample dialogs, lists, self-tests, checklists, forms, and boxed highlights."
