2. BCG matrix
o What is BCG matrix?
BCG matrix use two factors to evaluate organizations set of
businesses: the growth of a particular market and theorganizations share of that market. The matrix suggests thatfast growing markets in which an organization has thehighest market share are more attractive businessopportunities than slow growing markets in which andorganization has small market share. Dividing market growthand market share in to two categories (low and high) createdthe simple matrix shown below:

Dogs are business that have very small share of a market that is notexpected to grow. So these businesses dont hold much economicpromise.
Question marks are business that has only small share of quicklygrowing market and the future performance of these businesses areuncertain. And it generates low profits.
Stars are businesses that have largest share of a rapidly growingmarket. Cash cows should be invested in stars to ensure their
preeminent position. Cash cows are business that have large share of market that is not
expected to grow substantially. These types of business generate highprofits.

1. Operational Level
Transaction Processing Systems (TPS)
As the name implies, Transaction Processing Systems ("TPS") are designedto process routine transactions efficiently and accurately. A business will have
several (sometimes many) TPS; for example:
o Billing systems to send invoices tocustomers(Ac)
o Order tracking, order processing (SM)o Machine control, plant scheduling,
material movement control(M)o Security trading, cash management(F)o Systems to calculate the weekly and
monthly payroll and tax payments(Ac)o Compensation trading and
development, employee record keeping (HR)o Production and purchasing systems to
calculate raw material requirementso Stock control systems to process all
movements into, within and out of the business

2. Knowledge Level System
Knowledge Management Systems
Knowledge Management Systems ("KMS") exist to help businesses createand share information. These are typically used in a business whereemployees create new knowledge and expertise - which can then be sharedby other people in the organization to create further commercial opportunities.Good examples include firms of lawyers, accountants and managementconsultants.
KMS are built around systems which allow efficient categorization anddistribution of knowledge. For example, the knowledge itself might becontained in word processing documents, spreadsheets, PowerPointpresentations. Internet pages or whatever to share the knowledge, a KMSwould use group collaboration systems such as an intranet.
3. Management Level System
Management Information Systems
A management information system ("MIS") is mainly concerned with internalsources of information. MIS usually take data from the transaction processingsystems (see below) and summarize it into a series of management reports.
o Sales management (SM)o Inventory control (M)o Annual budget (F)o Capital investment analysis (Ac)o Relocation analysis (HR)
Decision-Support Systems
Decision-support systems ("DSS") are specifically designed to helpmanagement make decisions in situations where there is uncertainty aboutthe possible outcomes of those decisions. DSS comprise tools andtechniques to help gather relevant information and analyses the options andalternatives. DSS often involves use of complex spreadsheet and databasesto create "what-if" models.
o Sales region analysiso Production schedulingo Cost analysiso Pricing/profitability analysiso Control cost analysis

4. Strategic Level
Executive Support Systems
An Executive Support System ("ESS") is designed to help seniormanagement make strategic decisions. It gathers analyses and summarizesthe key internal and external information used in the business.
A good way to think about an ESS is to imagine the senior management teamin an aircraft cockpit - with the instrument panel showing them the status of allthe key business activities. ESS typically involves lots of data analysis andmodeling tools such as "what-if" analysis to help strategic decision-making.

Enterprise Resource Planning
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems attempt to integrate all data andprocesses of an organization into a unified system. A typical ERP system willuse multiple components of computer software and hardware to achieve theintegration. A key ingredient of most ERP systems is the use of a unifieddatabase to store data for the various system modules.
Advantage of ERPo design engineering (how to best make the product)o order tracking from acceptance through fulfillmento the revenue cycle from invoice through cash receipto managing interdependencies of complex Bill of Materialso tracking the 3-way match between Purchase orders (what was
ordered), Inventory receipts (what arrived), and Costing (what thevendor invoiced)
o The Accounting for all of these tasks, tracking the Revenue, Cost andProfit on a granular level.
Customer relationship management
Customer relationship management (CRM) is a customer-centric businessstrategy with the goal of maximizing profitability, revenue, and customersatisfaction. Technologies that support this business purpose include thecapture, storage and analysis of customer, vendor, partner, and internalprocess information. Functions that support this business purpose includeSales, Marketing and Customer Service, Training, Professional Development,Performance Management, Human Resource Development andCompensation. Technology to support CRM initiatives must be integrated aspart of an overall customer-centric strategy. Many CRM initiatives have failedbecause implementation was limited to software installation without alignmentto a customer-centric strategy.
Analytical CRM analyzes customer data for a variety ofpurposes:
o Design and execution of targeted marketing campaigns to optimizemarketing effectiveness.
o Design and execution of specific customer campaigns, includingcustomer acquisition, cross-selling, up-selling, retention
o Analysis of customer behavior to aid product and service decisionmaking (e.g. pricing, new product development etc.)
o Management decisions, e.g. financial forecasting and customerprofitability analysis

How does internet use to Y2K Group
Y2K Group is going to use E-business. All businesses are using E-businessand E-Commerce in the world. Using Internet will get so many advantages to
the company.
Impact of internet on the organizational environments andstrategic planning
1. Targeting right market segments
o It is important for advertisers to spend their advertisement dollars ($)wisely.
o They can achieve this by using appropriate methods of advertising andtargeting the right market segments.
o Two different types of advertising are entertainment ads and traditionaladvertising.
o Entertainment ads focus on entertaining a customer whereas traditionaladvertising is more direct and usually positioned between rather thanwithin editorial items.
o When the entertainment ads work well, they can be quite successful indrawing customers to their site however, it is very easy for this type ofad to flop resulting in no one returning to visit the advertisement siteafter they see it once.
o Traditional advertising has better readership.o It can also be used well in targeting the right market segments.
22
7/27/2019 MIT (Managment in Information Technology) Documentation
23/61
MIT (Management in IT)
o For instance, the ESPN Sports page would be a good site to place adsby Gatorade and Nike.
o Sports minded people that might be interested in these products wouldbe likely to access these pages.
o A good reference for researching this topic further is at Advertising
Age.
2. Security
o One of the main factors holding back businesses' progress on theInternet is the issue of security.
o Customers do not feel confident sending their credit card numbers overthe Internet.
o Computer hackers can grab this information off the Internet if it is notencrypted.
o Netscape and several other companies are working on encryptionmethods.
o Strong encryption algorithms and public education in the use of theInternet should increase the number of online transactions.
o After all, getting your credit card number stolen in every daytransactions is easier.
o In addition, securing private company information and enforcingcopyright issues still need to be resolved before the businesscommunity really takes advantage of Internet transactions.
o There are, however, currently some methods within Netscape forplacing the information online yet restricting it to only certain peoplesuch as company employees.
3. Consumer confidence
o Consumer confidence is essential for conducting business online.o Although related to security, consumer confidence also deals with
feeling confident about doing business online.o For instance, can consumers believe that a company is legitimate if it is
on the Internet, or could it be some kind of boiler room operation? Also,companies must be able to substantiate their advertising claims if they
are published online.o As well as the future of Internet commerce.o After all, if consumer confidence is low, businesses will not succeed.
4. Speed of network access
o The speed of network access is a risk for businesses.o If businesses spend a lot of money for fast network
connections and design their sites with this in mind yet customers havelower speed connections, this may result in fewer consumers
accessing their site.
23
7/27/2019 MIT (Managment in Information Technology) Documentation
24/61
MIT (Management in IT)
o Fewer consumers accessing their site most likely resultsin lower profits which are in addition to the extra cost of the fasternetwork connection.
o On the other hand, if the company designed for sloweraccess yet customers have faster access, they could still lose out in
profits.o Currently some of the options that home users have to
choose from are traditional modems, ISDN, and Cable Modems.o Traditional modems are cheaper but the current speed is
a maximum of 28.8 Kbps.o ISDN is faster at 56 Kbps, but more expensive.o Cable modems are faster yet with a speed of 4 Mbps.o However, two-way interaction with a cable modem needs
some more testing to be sure that it works as well as ISDN..

TASK # 1.5
Risk Management
What is the risk management process?
The risk management process consists of a series of steps that, when
undertaken in sequence, enable continual improvement in decision-making.
1. Communicate and consult
Communication and consultation aims to identify who should be involved in
assessment of risk (including identification, analysis and evaluation) and it
should engage those who will be involved in the treatment, monitoring and
review of risk.
As such, communication and consultation will be reflected in each step of the
process described in this guide.
As an initial step, there are two main aspects that should be identified in order
to establish the requirements for the remainder of the process. These are
communication and consultation aimed at:
o eliciting risk information
o Managing stakeholder perceptions for management of risk.
2. Establish the context
When considering risk management in Y2K Group, it is important to first
establish some boundaries within which the risk management process will
apply.
The business owner may be only interested in identifying financial risks as
such the information collected will pertain only to that area of risk.
26
7/27/2019 MIT (Managment in Information Technology) Documentation
27/61
MIT (Management in IT)
Establish the risk management context
It is important to define the limits, objectives and scope of the activity or issue
under examination.
o In conducting a risk analysis for a new project, such as the
introduction of a new piece of equipment or a new product line, it is
important to clearly identify the parameters for this activity to ensure
that all significant risks are identified.
Establishing the parameters and boundaries of the activity or issue also
involves the determination of:
o Timeframe
o resources required
o roles and responsibilities
o additional expertise required
o internal and external relationships
o record-keeping requirements
o Depth of analysis required.
Develop risk criteria
Risk criteria allow a business to clearly define unacceptable levels of risk.
Conversely, risk criteria may include the acceptable level of risk for a specific
activity or event. In this step the risk criteria may be broadly defined and then
further refined later in the risk management process.
It is against these criteria that the Y2K Group owner will evaluate an identified
risk to determine if it requires treatment or control. Where a risk exists that
27
7/27/2019 MIT (Managment in Information Technology) Documentation
28/61
MIT (Management in IT)
may cause any of the objectives not to be met, it is deemed unacceptable and
a treatment strategy must be identified.
3. Identify the risks
Risk cannot be managed unless it is first identified. Once the context of the
business has been defined, the next step is to utilize the information to identify
as many risks as possible.
The aim of risk identification is to identify possible risks that may affect, either
negatively or positively, the objectives of the business and the activity under
analysis. Answering the following questions identifies the risk:
o What can happen?
o How can it happen?
o
Why could it happen?
Identifying retrospective risks
Retrospective risk identification is often the most common way to identify risk,
and the easiest. Its easier to believe something if it has happened before. It is
also easier to quantify its impact and to see the damage it has caused.
There are many sources of information about retrospective risk. These
include:
o hazard or incident logs or registers
o audit reports
o customer complaints
o accreditation documents and reports
o past staff or client surveys
o Newspapers or professional media, such as journals or websites.

Benefits of risk management
Small businesses can expect to encounter many benefits from applying risk
management principles in a structured and systematic way. These include:
o Improved communication between staff and with external stakeholders
o Improved understanding of the impacts that management practices
have on a business
o Improved relationships with stakeholders such as clients, employees,
suppliers and contractors
o Enhanced business planning and achievement of objectives and goals
o Reduced litigation potential
o Increased competitive advantage
o Enhanced quality of product or service
o Increased efficiency and productivity

Employee Training Plane
Based on learning principles, here is a checklist for a successful employeelearning experience:
The goals of the employee training or development program are clear The employees are involved in determining the knowledge, skills, and
abilities to be learned The employees are participating in activities during the learning
process The work experiences and knowledge that employees bring to each
learning situation are used as a resource A practical and problem-centered approach based on real examples is
used New material is connected to the employee's past learning and work
experience The employees are given an opportunity to reinforce what they learn by
practicing The learning environment is informal, safe and supportive The individual employee is shown respect The learning opportunity promotes positive self-esteem
43

44/61
MIT (Management in IT)
Learn more about learning principles and how they relate to your employeetraining & development program.
Employee training and development process
Learning happens all the time whether or not you are fully aware of it. Are youa person who forgets to save your work on your computer on a regular basis?If a power failure occurs and you loose some data, do you learn anything? Ifyou say to yourself, "I must remember to save more often", you have donesome learning. This type of learning is called incidental learning; you havelearned without really thinking about it or meaning to. On the other hand,intentional learning happens when you engage in activities with an attitude of"what can I learn from this?" Employee development requires you to approacheveryday activity with the intention of learning from what is going on aroundyou.
Who is responsible for employee training and development?
Employee training is the responsibility of the organization. Employeedevelopment is a shared responsibility of management and the individualemployee. The responsibility of management is to provide the right resourcesand an environment that supports the growth and development needs of theindividual employee.
For employee training and development to be successful, managementshould:
Provide a well-crafted job description - it is the foundation upon whichemployee training and development activities are built
Provide training required by employees to meet the basiccompetencies for the job. This is usually the supervisor's responsibility
Develop a good understanding of the knowledge, skills, and abilitiesthat the organization will need in the future. What are the long-termgoals of the organization and what are the implications of these goalsfor employee development? Share this knowledge with staff
Look for learning opportunities in every-day activity. Was there anincident with a client that everyone could learn from? Is there a new
government report with implications for the organization? Explain the employee development process and encourage staff to
develop individual development plans Support staff when they identify learning activities that make them an
asset to your organization both now and in the future
For employee development to be a success, the individual employee should:
Look for learning opportunities in every-day activity Identify goals and activities for development and prepare an individual
development plan

1. Stress training as investment. The reason training is oftenconsidered optional at many companies is because it is thought of asan expense rather than an investment. While its true that training canbe costly up front, it's a long-term investment in the growth anddevelopment of your human resources.
2. Determine your needs. As you probably dont have unlimited time orfunds to execute an employee training program, you should decideearly on what the focus of your training program should be. Determinewhat skills are most pertinent to address current or future companyneeds or ones that will provide the biggest payback. Ask yourself, Howwill this training eventually prove beneficial to the company? Repeatthis process as your business needs change.
3. Promote a culture of learning. In todays fast-paced economy, if abusiness isnt learning, its going to fall behind. A business learns as its
people learn. Communicate your expectations that all employeesshould take the necessary steps to hone their skills and stay on top oftheir professions or fields of work. Make sure you support those effortsby providing the resources needed to accomplish this goal.
4. Get management on board. Once you have developed a prioritizedlist of training topics that address key needs within your company, youneed to convince management to rally behind the initiative.
5. Start out small. Before rolling out your training program to themasses, rehearse with a small group of users and gather theirfeedback. This sort of informal benchmarking exposes weaknesses inyour training plans and helps you fine tune the training process.
6. Choose quality instructors and materials. Who you select toconduct the training will make a major difference in the success of yourefforts, whether its a professional educator or simply a knowledgeablestaff member. Having the right training materials is also important afterthe training is over, these materials become valuable resources for
trainees.
7. Find the right space. Select a training location thats conducive tolearning. Choose an environment thats quiet and roomy enough tospread out materials. Make sure the space is equipped with acomputer and projector, so you can present a visually stimulatingtraining session.
8. Clarify connections. Some employees may feel that the trainingthey're receiving isn't relevant to their job. Its important to help themunderstand the connection early on, so they dont view the training
sessions as a waste of valuable time. Employees should see the
45
7/27/2019 MIT (Managment in Information Technology) Documentation
46/61
MIT (Management in IT)
training as an important addition to their professional portfolios. Awardpeople with completion certificates at the end of the program.
9. Make it ongoing. Dont limit training solely to new employees.Organized, ongoing training programs will maintain all employees skill
levels, and continually motivate them to grow and improveprofessionally.
10. Measure results. Without measurable results, its almost impossible toview training as anything but an expense. Decide how youre going toobtain an acceptable rate of return on your investment. Determine whatkind of growth or other measure is a reasonable result of the trainingyou provide. Youll have an easier time budgeting funds for futuretraining if you can demonstrate concrete results.
Purpose of Training and Development
Reasons for emphasizing the growth and development of personnel include
Creating a pool of readily available and adequate replacements forpersonnel who may leave or move up in the organization.
Enhancing the company's ability to adopt and use advances intechnology because of a sufficiently knowledgeable staff.
Building a more efficient, effective and highly motivated team, whichenhances the company's competitive position and improves employeemorale.
Ensuring adequate human resources for expansion into new programs.
Research has shown specific benefits that business receives from training
and developing its workers, including:
Increased productivity. Reduced employee turnover. Increased efficiency resulting in financial gains. Decreased need for supervision.
Employees frequently develop a greater sense of self-worth, dignity and well-being as they become more valuable to the firm and to society. Generally theywill receive a greater share of the material gains that result from theirincreased productivity. These factors give them a sense of satisfactionthrough the achievement of personal and company goals.

Staff Motivation
Productivity of any organization or department or work unit depends upon the
people who work in that unit. Given the same inputs, people can products
more if they work more thus increasing the productivity of the organization,
department or work unit. How to make people work more or work better? is
an issue that requires an understanding of what motivates people to work
better in higher proportions with marginal increase in some inputs. This
requires an understanding of the term motivation.
Motivation can be defined as a concept used to describe the factors with in an
individual which arouse, maintain and channel behavior towards a goal.
There are different types of motivation such as,
The Role of Motivation
47
7/27/2019 MIT (Managment in Information Technology) Documentation
48/61
MIT (Management in IT)
Simple model of motivation
Theories of motivation
Maslows Hierarchy of Needs
Physiological Needs (Level I):
This Level is the most basic human needs. They include food, water, comfort,
shelter drink rest etc... The organization helps to satisfy employees
physiological needs by a paycheck.
Safety Needs (Level II):
This Level is the desires for security and stability, to feel safe from harm.
Where the basic needs are reasonably satisfied we turn to thinking about
protection from danger, security and order so that we feel safe. These needs
can be a concern for physical but also covers Physiological safety needs such
as job security etc. the organization helps to satisfy employees safety needs
by benefits.
Social Needs (Level III):
This Level is the desires for affiliation. They include friendship, love and
belonging. The organization helps to satisfy employees social needs throughsports teams, parties and celebrations. The supervisor can help fulfill social
48
7/27/2019 MIT (Managment in Information Technology) Documentation
49/61
MIT (Management in IT)
needs by shoeing direct care and concern for employees. Social needs such
as needing acceptance, giving receiving affection and belonging become
things that people want
Esteem Needs (Level IV):
This Level is the desires for achievement, self esteem, self confidents, self
respect and/or recognition from others, and status. The organization helps to
satisfy employees esteem needs by matching the skills and abilities of the
employee to the job. The supervisor can help fulfill esteem needs by showing
workers that their work is appreciated.
Self-actualization Needs (Level V):
This Level is the desires for self-fulfillment and the realization of the
individuals full potential. The need to become the person that we feel we are
capable of becoming. This means that we have achieved what we consider to
be our very best. The supervisor can help fulfill Self-actualization by assigning
tasks that challenge employees minds while drawing on their aptitude and
training.
Hertzberg Theories
Hertzbergs two factor Theory
Like Maslow Hertzberg believed that people had higher and lower
levels of needs. Unlike Maslow who had five levels of needs
Hertzberg has divided human needs into two categories.
o Hygiene Factor
Environmental factors such as salary, inter-personal
relationships working conditions, style of leadership and types of
supervision, security, type of work, working hours, status.
Hygiene factors are so called because they are seen to work like
preventative medicine. They stop you from getting sick but do
not really do anything to make you the healthiest that you can
be, or better than you where. In a management context this
49
7/27/2019 MIT (Managment in Information Technology) Documentation
50/61
MIT (Management in IT)
means that hygiene factors dont motivate people to do their
very best but they are needed to stop people becoming
dissatisfied with their jobs.
o Motivating Factor
Factors within a job which allow for such things as achievement,
responsibility, recognition, advancement, challenge, Hertzberg
suggests that these factors are the ones which encourage
people to strive to do well, in other words to motivate them to do
their best.
Hertzberg believed that these two levels of needs were important for job
satisfaction however they worked in different ways. If the lover needs are
inadequate workers will quickly become dissatisfied, however, as these needs
are satisfied trying to motivate staff by just adding more hygiene factors such
as wages or work hours is an inefficient and short term solution. A better way
would be to appeal to their higher level needs by giving them more
responsibility or giving them greater scope for advancement. In this way the
individuals goals are satisfied as well as those of the organization. Job
enrichment programs are where jobs are redesigned to incorporate these
motivating factors.
Employee Motivation
o Make your presence known
Coming to work and announcing your arrival is a great way to motivate
employees and put a smile on their face first thing in the morning. Walking
through the doors and simply saying good morning with a smile on your facecan make all the difference in the world.
o Verbal Praise
This kind of praise doesnt have to be over dramatic or over the top, most
times showing respect for your employees by saying simple things like please
and thank you are easy and effective ways to motivate your employees.
Simply saying you did a great job when the employee deserves it is anotherway that verbal praise can work to motivate employees.
50
7/27/2019 MIT (Managment in Information Technology) Documentation
51/61
MIT (Management in IT)
o Set clear expectations
Communicating deadlines, objectives, and requirements of a job is essential
to completing the task efficiently. Sometimes these things are reported very
well but they may change. Usually these changes are not discussed in detail
and therefore it causes employees to feel that they are either not important
enough to be told why the changes are taking place, or that the manager has
made a mistake. Neither of these thoughts will lead to a motivated employee.
One way to prevent this is to always get some kind of feedback from the
employee about the job so that you are certain that he knows what is
expected. If there is a change in a project, tell the employee why. Make them
part of the solution to the problem.
o Give employees regular feedback
Let the employee know when he is doing a good job. This also works theother way, let the employee know when you are not pleased with the outcome
and why. This is a great opportunity to let the to ask the employee if there is
anything that you as a manager can do to help employee know how they can
do better next time. Also, now is a good time with the change. Wait for
feedback from the employee. Talk it over and have a real discussion. This will
make the employee feel like you are not upset about the job, but that you are
genuinely concerned and willing to help correct the problem.
o Create consequences
Make sure to not only tell the employee when you are pleased with the work,
but also provide rewards and recognition for outstanding work. A personally
written thank you card is a very effective and inexpensive way to do this.
When an employee is not working up to the expectations set by the company,
it is motivating to other workers, after all, they may think, If he isnt doing itwhy should I? That is why it is so important to make clear consequences for
51
7/27/2019 MIT (Managment in Information Technology) Documentation
52/61
MIT (Management in IT)
those who do not perform as expected. It is very important to be consistent
with these consequences.
Y2K Group financial motivation
Most people work to satisfy needs of one kind or another. Non financialmotivators are things other than money that motivate people to work. Isuggested Maslowss Hierarchy of Needs.
1. Basic needs: for food, drink and shelter2. Safety needs: protection against danger, threat, deprivation3. Social needs: the need for belonging, acceptance, friendship4. Self-esteem needs: reputation, status5. Self-actualizations: the need for realizing one's own potential for
continual self-development
In a hierarchy the things at the top are more important than those at thebottom. Company said the lower levels have to be satisfied first. Only whenthese needs have been satisfied will the individual strive to satisfy the higherneeds. For example, hungry, cold people will seek food and shelter first. Oncethey are well fed and comfortable, they will turn their attention to higherneeds,
Basic needs:
A fair wage, a meal and rest facilities
Safety needs
Job security, safe working conditions, and pension schemes.
Social needs
Met by introducing team work and perhaps providing social facilitieslike a club or sports pitch.
Self-esteem needs
This is about how others see us at work and can be provided for byrewarding staff with status symbols like cars, offices and new jobtitles. Allowing staff to gain qualifications at work can boost self-esteem too.
Self-actualization
Achieving your full potential a business must ensure that promotion is
possible and that there are opportunities to use initiative.

53/61
MIT (Management in IT)
Y2K Group non financial motivation
Money, and the way it is paid, can affect motivation to work. In your exam,you may be asked to calculate wages and bonuses or to compare one type ofpayment scheme to another. These are some of the most usual payment
systems:
Time rate or 'wages' Paying by the number of hoursworked.
Piece rate Paying by the number of items(pieces) produced.
Overtime Extra pay for work done over and
above normal working hours. It isusually paid at a higher hourly rate,e.g. double time means twice thenormal hourly rate.
Shift payments Usually paid for working unsocialhours such as night work.
Bonus payments A special single payment forachieving a target.
Profit sharing A percentage of the company's profitis shared amongst the workers.
Loan Giving some Loans to Employee
Paying extra money for jobs with difficult hours will usually encourage peopleto apply for the work
Aloyalty bonus can be used to persuade workers to stay with their employerfor a long period of time. Employees may not want to work longer than theircontracted hours but they can often be persuaded to do so by receiving ahigher rate of pay.
A perk is a payment in kind. Instead of giving money the employer mightprovide:
cars health insurance free uniform
discounted products first class travel
53
7/27/2019 MIT (Managment in Information Technology) Documentation
54/61
MIT (Management in IT)
It is often cheaper for the employer to provide goods rather than the money tobuy them with. A good perk will make an employee reluctant to leave thebusiness
A good answer will suggest introducing some of the following things:
Providing a pleasant room for staff to use during breaks. Providing subsidized meals or improving the existing canteen. Giving permanent contracts of employment An occupational pension scheme Introducing team working and giving teams more say in how things are
done Advertising job opportunities internally Introducing a newsletter or regular briefing for all staff Rewarding staff with perks like company cars, insurance schemes or
discounted goods
TASK # 3.2
Performance Appraisal
Performance appraisal (PA) is the process through which an individual
employees behavior and accomplishments for a fixed time period are
measured and evaluated. The major purpose of measuring and evaluating is
to asses the worth or value. Performance appraisal is a systematic and
objective way of jading the relevant worth or identify those who are
performance their assigned tasks well and those who are not the reasons for
such performance. Performance appraisal is thus the process of reviewing an
individuals performance and progress in a job and assessing his potential for
future improvement. It is a systematic method of obtaining, analyzing andrecording information about a person that is needed.
