Product Description
No matter what type of business or even nonprofit organization you are managing, a written performance appraisal is good management. Employee reviews can serve as a platform for employees to bring forth questions and concerns. This can help increase employee dedication, creativity, and job satisfaction. Reviews allow you to evaluate employees for increased responsibilities and future promotions. You will have written records of your employees performance, get more productivity, and clearly set compensation. Employee appraisals are critical to your organization, but are time-consuming to write. This new book and companion CD-ROM is your solution. You will produce professional-quality performance reviews in minutes. The book provides over 199 pre-written employee phrases you can insert into a blank employee appraisal form. The evaluations are professional, constructive, and direct. See the accompanying CD-ROM for 25 different categories to evaluate your employee in. Each category includes at least 8 different phrases you can choose from to describe your employees performance in that category. Pick and choose which categories you would like to include in your employees performance appraisal and how you want to describe your employees performance in that category and then just insert them all into the prepared appraisal form.

Take The Pain Out of The Appraisal Process! April 4, 2007
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Nothing is more vital to the success of an organization than the contribution of each of its employees, but managers are usually experts in fields other than human resources. "199 Pre-Written Employee Performance Appraisals" takes the pain out of the performance appraisal process. Stephanie Lyster and Anne Arthur have written a well-organized, easy to read book that will enable managers to provide performance appraisals that keep employees motivated and striving for defined goals and objectives that benefit both themselves and the organization. No longer do you have to worry about what you can or should say and how to say it. This book addresses every situation from problem employees to executive appraisals, telecommuting and seasonal employees. It even shows managers how to easily design new performance appraisal systems. Get this book and get back to business with improved morale, drive, productivity and communication. Don't make it a goal, make it a reality!
Everything you need to know to set up a performance review system March 20, 2007
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Lyster and Arther outline the entire process of how to start, use, and maintain a performance appraisal system for your employees. The book has specific, concrete examples of what to do, as well as what not to do. I found the section about potential errors that managers can make was especially useful, since I have made some of those errors in the past without realizing it. The book also comes with a CD that contains useful forms and checklists for the entire process. This CD alone is worth the price of the book.
If you are working for a company with an already established performance review system, this book will help you figure out how to deal within the system, make improvements to the system as needed, and ensure your employees are provided with quality reviews. It was also helpful for figuring out how to talk to under-performing employees.
This book is probably most useful to new companies or companies who don't already have an established system in place, since this will give you step-by-step instructions on what you need to do (including checklists and examples).
I recommend this book to anyone who is a manager (new or experienced), anyone in HR, or anyone starting their own performance appraisal system within their company.
Both business reference libraries and company managers will want this. February 8, 2007

Plenty of books include mention or discussion of the performance appraisal in surveys of managerial success; but how many offer examples of successful written performance appraisals - much less nearly two hundred examples? These pre-written employee appraisals provides reviews of all issues, from performance evaluation structures and legal ramifications to handling problem employees. Chapters survey all angles and provide managers with plenty of concrete references for building concrete performance appraisals. Both business reference libraries and company managers will want this.

Good resource for any manager January 4, 2007
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This easy-to-use book is a good resource for any manager who needs to write or conduct employee performance appraisals. From defining the employee performance appraisal to detailing pros and cons, this book covers it all in clear, concise, easy-to-understand language. I especially liked the chapter on Special Circumstances Employee Performance Appraisals, which covers telecommuting employees, an ever-increasing portion of the workforce. The companion CD provides excellent templates that managers can adapt to fit their needs.
