PSY-665 Principles of Personnel
and Human Resource Management
Employee Performance Project
You will create a PowerPoint
presentation of 12-15 slides that covers performance evaluation of
nonmanagement employees, performance improvement/development of nonmanagement
employees, and management/leadership development. You will complete this
assignment in sections over Topics 4, 5, and 6.
During Topic 4-
Start the PPT project by
presenting a brief outline of the performance evaluation process.
Locate a personal past performance
appraisal (if you do not have a personal appraisal, you can locate and review a
sample online at:
https://www.shrm.org/resourcesandtools/tools-and-samples/hr-forms/pages/performanceappraisal_completedappraisalform.aspx)
Analyze each performance factor or
criterion on the performance appraisal and address the following steps.
1. Are the expectations for each performance
criterion clear (i.e., will the employee know what they need to do to meet the
criterion)?
2. Is the criterion measurable (i.e., will
the employee know how close to or how far from he or she is to meeting the
criterion)?
3. Describe the review process you went
through and your findings in the PPT presentation.
During Topic 5-
Continue the project by describing
the purposes of each intervention presented on the evaluation, specifically
addressing cognitive and behavioral theories of human learning. Also, provide
common examples of other interventions used in the field. Expound on the
examples by describing the potential impacts.
1. How will these interventions benefit the
organization?
2. Make sure to distinguish between training
and professional development interventions.
During Topic 6-
Continue the project by explaining
the role of Management and Leadership development within organizations.
1. Compare the approaches organizations take
in developing managers to the approaches they take when developing
nonmanagement employees.
2. Looking at the appraisal from the first
part of this assignment, discuss how interventions would differ for employees
in management.
3. Explain why distinctions are made between
the two types of employees.
Combine all components from Topics
4, 5, and 6. Include transitions to create a flow to your presentation. The
entire completed PowerPoint is due in Topic 6.
Use three to five scholarly
resources to support your explanations.
Include speaker notes below each
content-related slide that represent what would be said if giving the
presentation in person. Expand upon the information included in the slide and
do not simply restate it. Please ensure the speaker notes include 50-75 words
per slide.
