Recensioner i media

‘Performance appraisal has been criticised in recent years, but this book, based on an objective review of the evidence, reminds us of the adage that there is probably nothing better than a well-designed system, but definitely nothing worse than a poorly designed one.’ - Paul Sparrow, Director, Centre for Performance-Led HR and Professor, Lancaster University, UK‘Performance management has moved from the single practice of performance appraisal to a much broader approach. Fletcher and Williams contribute to a better understanding of these systems and address practical issues that arise in motivating, developing and assessing employee performance in the context of these systems. ’ - Adelien Decramer, Assistant Professor HRM, Ghent University, Belgium
