The process of performance appraisals frustrates most employees and managers who use it. While many books prescribe cures for appraisals, this is the first book to focus exclusively on eliminating them altogether.

Co-authored by Jenkins People Systems' Mary Jenkins, Abolishing Performance Appraisals: Why They Backfire and What to Do Instead offers practical suggestions on how to replace performance appraisals with more progressive approaches to feedback and development.  Exploring such areas as coaching, compensation, promotions, and legal documentation, it challenges readers to think about the important questions surrounding the use of appraisals.
