CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTI

ON

CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION AND DESIGN OF THE STUDY

The history of performance appraisal is quite brief . I ts roots in the early

20th century can be traced to Taylor 's pioneering Time and Motion studies. But

this is not very helpful, for the same may be said about almost everything in the

16

7/28/2019 39623456-360-Degree-Performance-Appraisal.doc

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/39623456-360-degree-performance-appraisaldoc 17/85

f ie ld o f moder n human r es ources management. As a d is ti nc t and f or ma l

management procedure used in the evaluation of work performance, appraisal

real ly dates f rom the t ime of the Second World War - not more than 60 years

ago.

In many organizations - but not al l - appraisal results are used, ei ther  

directly or indirectly, to help determine reward outcomes. That is , the appraisal

results are used to identify the better performing employees who should get the

majority of available merit pay increases, bonuses and promotions.

By the same token, apprai sa l r esult s a re used to ident ify the poorer  

 performers who may require some form of counseling, or in extreme cases,

demot ion, dismissal or decreases in pay. (Organizat ions need to be aware of  

laws in their country that might restr ict their capacity to dismiss employees or  

decrease pay.)

The purpose of this s tudy has been to determine whether the performance

apprai sa l used by the organiza tion sat is fi es the employees under various

category and whether the appraisal was emphasized as an important part of the

 performance appraisal process.

1:1 Importance of the study

The present study is expected to identify the factors of dissatisfaction in the 360 degree

 performance appraisal system which would directly improve the employee performance

thereby significantly increasing the company profit.

17

7/28/2019 39623456-360-Degree-Performance-Appraisal.doc

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/39623456-360-degree-performance-appraisaldoc 18/85

This study will also enable the personnel department to identify the factors influencing

the performance appraisal which leads to turn over of the employees due to the

dissatisfaction with the performance appraisal given to them.

1:2 Scope of the study

To identify the behavior and the honesty of the company in giving performance appraisal.

To suggest in what factors the company has to show their attention regarding

 performance appraisal.

To know the opinion of the employees, about the company’s 360 degree performance

appraisal system.

1:3 Objectives of the study

Conduct a study on the 360 degree performance appraisal among the employees of Life

Insurance Corporation of India, Neyyattinkara branch.

To study the satisfactory level of employees on the performance appraisal given by the

company

To identify the factors on which the employees are dissatisfied with the performance

appraisal given to them.

1:4 Review of Literature

According to Mary N. Vinson,

A 1993 survey on 100 fortune 500 companies by the Wyatt company showed that only 10

 percent of the employees were satisfied with their performance appraisal systems. Most said that

annual reviews that were perfunctory discussions that dealt mainly with salary. Still, other 

18

7/28/2019 39623456-360-Degree-Performance-Appraisal.doc

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/39623456-360-degree-performance-appraisaldoc 19/85

surveys indicate that most employees think performance appraisals are a good idea. They want to

know where they stand and what they must do to improve. If the employees say that they are

dissatisfied with the current appraisal system, what is the alternative?

One alternative is 360 degree feedback which is also called multirater feedback, upward

appraisal, full-circle feedback, and peer review. Though many companies are still using one-way,

downward feedback, another Wyatt study showed a beginning trend in upward feedback. The

1992 study found that subordinates were critiquing their superiors and peers in 12 percent of the

397 U.S. companies surveyed. By 1993, the figure was up to 26 percent.

Upward feedback:

Upward feedback gathers behavioural observations from different groups within an organization.

The feedback providers – bosses, peers, and subordinates – fill out a form that summarizes an

employee’s skills, abilities, styles, and job – related competencies. There’s no ideal number of 

feedback providers. Typically, external assessment consultants request four to ten feedback 

 providers per feedback receipent. Most consultant say that who gives feedback is more important

than how many.

As a director, Mary N. Vinson says that in a large company, her experience with 360 degree

feedback was in 1991, at a six week executive program at the university of Pittsburgh. At the

time, 360 degree feedback was rarely used. She received a ‘ Leadership Practices Inventory ‘ that

required her to conduct a self – assessment and distribute assessment surveys to her peers,

subordinates, and the boss. She probably chose the “ best “ candidates for feedback was

anonymous, though it was grouped by the categories “ peer, subordinates, and superior “. He

Back then she thought that feedback from bosses was the most valuable because they made the

decisions about salaries and promotions. Other people had told that they felt the same way.

Downward feedback:

19

7/28/2019 39623456-360-Degree-Performance-Appraisal.doc

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/39623456-360-degree-performance-appraisaldoc 20/85

Feedback can hurt. Evaluators aren’t always nice or positive. People can see their role as a

feedback provider as an opportunity to criticize others’ behavior on the job. Interestingly , many

feedback experts say that the most devastating criticism to the people is to be labeled “

untrustworthy “.

Another flaw concerns conflicting opinions. Who decides who is right? What’s more, employees

can stack the deck by choosing their friends to provide feedback. Then one has to question how

valuable the process is. Another potential problem is when people experience “ survey fatigue “

from having to fill countless forms. How accurate and reliable is the feedback.

Another area for concern is whether the feedback is truthful. Suppose that you have to fill out a

form on someone you don’t like. It’s difficult to own up to negative feelings on paper, so you

might equivocate. Or, you might vent. Mary admits that she has been less than candid on

occasion, often because she doesn’t want to answer certain questions or hurt someone’s feelings.

Whatever the reason, if the feedback isn’t truthful, it isn’t going to be useful.

Does 360 degree feedback improve performance? Too often, managers receive feedback, resolve

to do better, and nothing changes. That can happen whether the feedback is 360 degree or 

traditional, especially when it involves a strong personality. According to feedback specialists at

the Center for Creative Leadership in Greensboro, North Carolina, it takes massive doses of 

feedback for some people’s lights to come on. People may intend to act on feedback but then feel

that they are too busy to change their behavior. Or, they may lose their commitment. Or, they

may run into resistance from their subordinates and bosses. They may even convince themselves

that the feedback isn’t true, especially if it wasn’t a universally held opinion. Perhaps the fault

lies in the feedback instrument.

In one case, a company recently began using 360 degree feedback to assess its senior ranks.

Executive officers were asked to complete a self assessment and to distribute feedback surveys to

two “ direct reports “ and two “ indirect reports “ to complete. The executives could also give the

form to two peers.

The executives were apprehensive. It had been a long time since lower level people had

appraised them. The feedback instrument included seven rating areas and some open ended

questions. The executives expected the open ended portion to benefit them most, assuming that

20

7/28/2019 39623456-360-Degree-Performance-Appraisal.doc

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/39623456-360-degree-performance-appraisaldoc 21/85

the feedback providers would be candid – a big assumption considering that people were rating

the most senior executives. In fact, many of the subordinates thought that it was dangerous to be

completely truthful in this situation.

Once the feedback was compiled and tabulated, the executives were supposed to call a consultant

to discuss the results. Some called; some didn’t. When they were asked whether they’d acted on

the feedback, some said that they “ tried to pay attention to what everyone was saying”. But all

of them admitted that it was very easy to slip back into their usual behavior.

1.4  Limitations of the study

Any research has its own limitation. The limitation may be due to time and source of information

and knowledge. The researcher had faced many of these constrains .The limitation which I had

undergone during this study, were,

It is not sure that the sample which were selected for collecting data may represent the

whole population

 No scientific method was used in choosing the samples for the study

The time specified for the duration for the study was very limited

The data given by the employees may not be true or correct. But these data was taken for 

the analysis .so it may affect the accuracy of the result of this study

1.6  Research Methodology

Research design:

21

7/28/2019 39623456-360-Degree-Performance-Appraisal.doc

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/39623456-360-degree-performance-appraisaldoc 22/85

As research design is the arrangement of the conditions and analysis of data in a

manner that aims to combine relevance to the research purpose with economy in procedure.

The study is Descriptive in nature. On the basis of the information collected logical

conclusions have been drawn.

Descriptive research:

Descriptive studies are concerned with describing the characteristics of a particular 

individual or group. Often by creating a profile of a group of problems, people, or events through

the collection of data and the tabulation of the frequencies on research variables. The study

reveals who, what, when, where, or how much. The Descriptive study well structured it is

necessary that the researcher give sufficient thought to frame the research questions and

deciding.

Thus the study is descriptive in nature where the data is collected through well

structured questionnaire and from the information available in the organization.

PROFILE OF THE

ORGANISATIONORGANISATION PROFILE

The geographical area of this branch is 571 sq. kms.

The Neyyattinkara Branch under Thiruvananthapuram Division started functioning on

28.07.1984. The jurisdiction of the branch is over the entire Neyyattinkara Taluk excluding

Thiruvallam Panchayat and adding Kattakada Panchayat to the branch area from Vellanad block.

Kanyakumari and Thirunelveli Districts of Tamilnadu surround the branch area on the

Southy and East, the Thiruvananthapuram and Nedumangad Taluks cover the Northern side and

west is protected by Arabian Sea.

 Neyyattinkara has a rich cultural heritage. It could be proud of some famous

 personalities like Swadesabhimani Ramakrishna Pillai, the well – known revolutionary in the

history of Malayalam journalism. There is an auditorium in Neyyattinkara town in the memory

of the late. Sri. Ramakrishna Pillai. The general terrain of the land is of hilly, and rubber 

 plantations dominate the Eastern of the Taluk.

 Neyyattinkara is not largely industrialized. Agriculture is the major source of income of 

 people. Coconut is the main crop. Paddy and other crops bear only a small portion of the total

agricultural output. Now a days, because of intensive KHDP activities, vegetable growers,

25

7/28/2019 39623456-360-Degree-Performance-Appraisal.doc

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/39623456-360-degree-performance-appraisaldoc 26/85

mainly banana growers flourish well in the field of agriculture. Diary and poultry are also mainly

undertaken as resources of income. A good lot of Co – operative milk societies, mainly

KSHEERA, the most profitable milk societies in Kerala, are in our area.

There are only a very few industrial establishments in the area. Kerala Automobiles Ltd.,

is a famous industry working in this area. Handloom weaving is another industry of importance.

Balaramapuram is very famous for its handloom textile products. An eminent portion of the

 population depends on handloom weaving for their livelihood. A substantial part of the rural

 population depends on the brick making industry.

 Neyyattinkara Taluk is having a very lengthily seashore. Many people are engaged in

fishing activity. A very large Fishing harbor project is under construction at Vizhinjam. This area

is thickly populated and the per capital income is low, since a major portion of the population

depends on agriculture.

The internationally famous Kovalam beach resort is situated in our branch area. Hotel

industry in and around Kovalam is a flourishing well in these areas. Neyyar Dam is another place

of tourist importance. The traditional Ayurveda resorts are functioning well in these areas.

 Neyyattinkara town is the main urban centre and Taluk head quarters. Our branch is situated near 

KSRTC bus station in the town.

5:2 RECOMMENDATIONS

An innovative system could not only increase the performance of the staff, but also help

them to work together, with common goals and fewer obstacles.

It could help people to comment on others' performance and perceived problems more

freely.

They can bring out things which are normally never spoken, reducing tension, improvingcommunications, and most likely raising the employees' (or the manager's) performance

considerably.

Involve your employees in the process. If they design the new performance appraisal

system, they may be more dedicated to it--and both you and your employees can reap the

 benefits.

It is advisable for the company to have various appraisal systems because all the

employees need not like the same kind of performance appraisal system.

The company should listen to the employees expectations.

5:3  CONCLUSION

360-degree feedback is sometimes referred to as multi-rater appraisals, multi-source

feedback or 360 degree profiling. It is essentially a process, which enables a person to receive

feedback from a number of people around them. The purpose of the feedback is usually varied

from organisation to organisation. 360-degree feedback not only acts as tool for organisational

development but also to help an individual determine areas they need to develop. The success of 

the appraisal depends on the transparency and clear objectives of its need and its clear cut

intimation to the employees even at the bottom level of the organisation.
