Many managers over rate their subordinates. There is a tendency to emphasize the good and overlook the bad. The problem is when the employee gets terminated for performance related problems, what’s going to happen? In many cases the employee will contact a lawyer and win, costing the company a lot of money and time.
Simples rules for performance reviews:
- Be honest and fair
- Don’t wait until performance review time to cover performance issues
- Make it a rule to include areas for improvement and strengths on every employee
- Focus on the job, not the person
- Connect performance to business objectives
