two, modern methods have been developed. Of
such methods the most important are:
1. Management by Objectives (MBO)
2. Assessment Center Method
3. Human Asset Accounting Method
4. Behaviorally Anchored Rating Scales (BARS)

1. Management By Objectives (MBO)
• Evolved by Peter Drucker, MBO is an effective,
unique process that minimizes external control
and maximizes internal motivation.
• This is achieved through joint goal-setting
between manager and subordinate and
increasing the subordinate’s control over his
work through active participative management.
9. Chapter5
Performance Appraisal
• MBO could be described as a process whereby:
1. A system’s approach in which those accountable
for managing the organization first determine
where they want to take the organization.
2. A process requiring and encouraging all key
management personnel to contribute their
maximum to achieving the overall objectives.
3. An effort to blend and balance the individaul and
the organizational goals.
4. An evaluation mechanism

Objectives of MBO:
• The objective of MBO is to change behaviors and attitudes
towards getting the job done. It is a result-oriented
process steered by personal growth.
• It is a philosophy that stresses on goals rather than
methods.
• It provides responsibility and accountability and recognizes
that employees have the need for achievement and self
fulfillment.

participation in goal-setting process. Subordinates get
involved in planning their own careers.

between senior and subordinate.

that the path is correct
d) Establish checking points- self monitored control
e) Feedback- specific, relevant and timely for
corrective actions
12. Chapter5
Performance Appraisal
• Summing up, the foundations of MBO are:
a) Goal-setting
b) Feedback
c) Participation

present and future rather than the past.

accomplished and not on personal traits or
operational methodology.

Benefits of MBO:

personal commitment with inner drivenness.

corrective actions.

difficult to take off. People don’t change behaviors so
easily.

feeling of betrayal.
