8/23/2018

In this blog post, the author argues that performance reviews are a waste of time and ineffective in assessing employee performance. The author highlights various flaws and biases in the traditional performance review process, such as the tendency to focus on recent events rather than overall performance, the impact of personal biases on evaluations, and the lack of actionable feedback. The post suggests that instead of relying on annual performance reviews, organizations should adopt continuous feedback systems that provide more timely and specific feedback to employees. The author advocates for a shift towards a growth-oriented approach that focuses on individual development rather than rigid evaluations.
