The advantages of the hand as a lettering tool underscore the paradox that, with technological advancement, both a loss and profit were incurred. The computer, on the one ...

PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL

My Opinion on the Experts’ Recommendations

Performance appraisal is all about evaluating the way an employee is doing their job and one of its main purposes is for career development.

The current appraisal method has been ineffective in that the secretaries have been appraised as ‘good’ or ‘excellent’ just so that they don’t miss out on the annual ...
