 Goals-based performance appraisals are a method of evaluating employees based on their achievement of specific and measurable objectives that are aligned with the organization’s strategy and vision. Goals-based performance appraisals can help to identify the most capable staff who have contributed to the organization’s success, demonstrated high performance and potential, and shown commitment and engagement. Reviewing current goals-based performance appraisals across the enterprise can help management to retain the most capable staff regardless of their location, compensation, or length of service12. References: Performance Appraisal Methods: Traditional and Modern Methods (with example). How to Conduct a Performance Appraisal.
