Much managerial and employee resistance to performance evaluations is rooted in the fact that such procedures have no connection to anything else perceived as important to the organization. To succeed, employee appraisal and development systems must not be static, “paperwork” programs.

Ideally, these systems are based on the recognition that every employee, supervisor, manager and top-level executive benefits from an ongoing, open system of communication that directly relates to overall company goals and objectives.
