The Effects of Corporate Culture on the Value of Performance Appaisals

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

<p>This research project attempts to provide information that will determine the effects of corporate culture on the value of performance appraisals in an organization. To provide analysis for this theory, the researcher utilized information found in prior written literature that examined results of performance appraisals and conducted interviews in various manufacturing organizations on results not yet published. In particular, the researcher examined the development and practice of performance appraisals at Logan Aluminum Inc. and used this team management greenfield site as a basis for looking at results from other organizations. Results of the study found strong evidence to support the theory that the corporate culture of an organization has a direct effect upon the value of performance appraisals in the organization.</p>
