Appraisals, Ratings, & Reviews

This is an excellent performance evaluation tool. Conducting performance evaluations is an important responsibility of every supervisor. Employees deserve to know where they stand in the eyes of your organizations' leadership. If done intelligently, this process can foster honest communication between employees and supervisors and help create a stronger team by encouraging professional growth.

Appraisals, Ratings & Reviews for Servicemembers and Civilians is an excellent investment for those who are charged with the responsibility to craft employee evaluations. ARR outlines a methodology for evaluating your workers and contains a bounty of example bullet comments. These examples are organized into 33 subject areas and they address all levels of performance.

Not only does this book cover everything you need to know about evaluations, but it also includes information about punctuation, numbers, and homonyms so you do not have to stop what you are doing to consult a cryptic style guide. Simply open the table of contents and flip directly to the information you need. What is the difference-if any-between an em dash and an en dash? Did you know that a suit may have been well made, but it is a well-made suit? A level of proficiency with the written word is expected of all leaders in a professional setting.
