Linkage between appraisal system and attrition rate in IT industry

Attrition management has become the strategic focus and compelling necessity of business today.

The toughest concern for an HR manager is however the high attrition rate

IT industry has one of the highest attrition rate. Appraisal should be done fairly so that conflict , dissatisfaction and attrition rate gets reduced.

The share of attrition due to dissatisfaction in appraisal is also growing as techie are finding better opportunities at mushrooming startups and poaching is always there.

Problems with current appraisal process

People are inspired and motivated by positive, constructive feedback- and the “appraisal” process almost always works against this.

The most valuable part of an appraisal is the “development planning” conversation –what can one do to improve performance and engagement- and this is often left to a small box on the review form

Employees need and want regular feedback(daily, weekly), so a once a year review is not only too late but its often a surprise. Regular coaching is the key to alignment and performance.

Views/ Recommendations:-

Not only performance but also potential should be considered during appraisal.

Focus should be given to team performance also

We have a shortage of key talent and the keys to success now focus on regular alignment, coaching, creating passion and engagement, and continuous employee development.

Set and reset goals frequently. Companies that set performance goals quarterly generates 31% greater returns from their performance process than those who do it annually, and those who do it monthly even get better results.

Companies thrive by building skills-so in addition to encouraging managers to produce good work, HR should incent them to produce a good talent as well.

One more thing………

I never criticize anyone. There is nothing that so kills the ambition of a person as criticisms from superiors. I believe in giving a person incentive to work. The ultimate way to develop the best that is in a person is by appreciation and encouragement - Charles M. Schwab
