Agenda-Continuous Feedback Vs Performance Appraisal


Today the world of business is going through challenging times. Hiring the minds and skills of people is no longer sufficient. We need to inspire people and invoke their passion. We need people to get deeply involved, innovate and collaborate across levels and functions. This requires continuous dialogue and feedback between people and their organization.

* What is Continuous Feedback? Is it just a series of Performance Appraisals done more frequently? How can it help us grow and develop our talent assets? Should it be HR driven or business driven?

* With business leaders and managers busy with their day to day goals, how can we help them take an active role in providing Continuous Feedback, in nurturing and growing the talent within their respective teams?

* Can an organization wide common template be used for Continuous Feedback or do we need to customize the template for each function, role and level. Should we also customize the template to suit each individual based on his / her interests and career aspirations?

* How can Continuous Feedback help in aligning the organization’s goals with the individual interests and aspirations of it's people?

* How can an organization move up the value chain from a culture of "Yearly Performance Appraisals driven by HR", to a culture of "Continuous Feedback, Talent Nurturing, Growth and Development that is driven by business"?
