Book Synopsis

This collection of articles from the Harvard Business Review examines the employee review process from many angles, exploring why we dislike it and how it could be better. Whether concerned with retaining stars, guiding under-performers, or improving their own performance, readers will learn to approach appraisals in new ways. Most articles are from the past five years, written by academics and consultants in leadership, human resources, organizational behavior, and psychology, and include introductions and summaries.
