Research on the organization performance appraisal in the information era

Abstract

Performance appraisal can make the organization strategy come true and keep the organization sustainable development. The information era characterized in more and more knowledge workers and corporations informationization has lead the new challenges for the current performance appraisal. Knowledge-based employees are playing increasingly important role in the modern organization. The working place is not only in office and the working time is unfixed any more. Some of the organizations depend on the informationization too much. All these changes are changing the way of the current performance appraisal. This paper suggests the performance appraisal should combine with the ability appraisal, individual appraisal combine with the team appraisal, eHR (electronic human resource) combine with the traditional appraisal, which can exactly assess the employ's contribution in the organization in the information era. © 2011 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
