Change our appraisals process from paralysing to paradise

Success Stories – Client Case History No. 1

The HR Director of a UK manufacturer with a global customer base contacted us with a problem:  Their employee appraisal procedure was seen by the workforce as having very little value or relevance to them.  The process was clumsy and caused lots of repetitive and time hungry work for all concerned. 

We worked with the client to redesign a streamlined process that put appraisals creation on line, in a central database.  The company now has electronically filed appraisals that can be created, retrieved, shared, referenced and managed quickly and easily.  Everyone has templates to work from and on screen guidelines to ensure consistency and fairness across the workforce.  Automation has significantly cut down preparation and execution of appraisals – thus dramatically reducing the pain and cost of the whole exercise.

Individuals have clear goals and development plans.  Managers can spot and plug gaps in training, development or project experience which is strengthening the company’s skills pool. 

Results –

• A less harassed and overworked HR department
• Line Managers keen & confident to use this slicker, more manageable process
• A workforce that has put aside their suspicions & misgivings to look upon appraisals positively
• Trust in the whole process is up and everyone is seeing real value in it 
• A delighted MD & Finance Dept as the whole process just got a lot cheaper and quicker
