Abstract:
The effectiveness of a performance management strategy is impacted by a variety of factors, examined through many different research studies: -the accuracy and reliability of the tools used, such as forms and rating scales -the process and the context in which the evaluations are conducted -the accuracy and reliability of the raters/evaluators, typically supervisors. The proposed study will examine two elements and their impact on the accuracy of employee performance ratings: -The global cultural dimensions of the rater’s country of origin -The personality traits of the individual raters
