Though organizations have a clear right - some would say a duty - to conduct
such evaluations of performance, many still recoil from the idea. To them, the
explicit process of judgment can be dehumanizing and demoralizing and a
source of anxiety and distress to employees. It is been said by some that
appraisal cannot serve the needs of evaluation and development at the same
time; it must be one or the other.
But there may be an acceptable middle ground, where the need to
evaluate employees objectively, and the need to encourage and develop them,
can be balanced.
THE PROBLEM:-OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
10
competencies on resumes and address this area with potential employers may
help secure more satisfying work. This may not resolve issues for the company
that initially employed competency performance, without making suggested
changes. It may find competency performance has produced dissatisfied
workers or led to a high worker turnover rate.
SCOPE OF THE STUDY:
It is often said an organization's long-term success depends on the
ability of that organization to sustain the delivery of quality products and
services. However, if this ability to sustain high performance is a learnable
competence, then why do many organizations fail to do so?
The answer to this pertinent question often lies in the following three
major deterrents to sustaining high performance.
The senior management of an organization could have an inaccurate
understanding of the marketplace in which the organization is to compete.
Should this be the case, undoubtedly, the vision, mission, and strategies of the
organization are also inappropriate.
The behavior required to successfully implement the business strategy could
be misaligned with the customer and marketplace requirements. This is usually
true for leadership or employee behavior.
Organizational systems and processes often fail to support the organizational
vision and strategy. As a result thereof, the focus of organizations is incorrect in
that the wrong things are being focused on and measured.
It is this very responsiveness to the marketplace, leadership and
employee behavior, and systems and infrastructure design and deployment that
creates an organizations' culture. It is also the set of shared beliefs and
experiences that essentially define the identity of an organization and ultimately
guides its behavior.
11
Culture, inevitably changes over time, but also guides the notions of
value, opportunity, and reality. Usually rewards and punishments that have
become normative in an organization are preceded by these very beliefs being
expressed.
One such belief is that quantitative measures are more than adequate to
measure the performance of an organization. However, this belief is contrary to
a sustainable high performance culture, as the softer issues of culture are what
in reality enable the quantitative measures to grow positively.
Also consider the findings of a study done by Healy, Krishna, and
Ruback. That study finding was that, 55 to 77 percent of such deals (mergers
and acquisitions) failed to deliver the organizational and/or financial results that
were intended, and more than 50 percent of those failures are attributable to
serious cultural incompatibility.
What is a High Performance Culture?
This is a question often asked, What is organizational culture? The following is
one definition provided by E.J. Schein.
A pattern of shared, basic assumptions that the group learned as it solved
problems of external adaptation and internal integration, that has worked well
enough to be considered valid, and, therefore, to be taught to new members as
the correct way to perceive, think, and feel in relation to those problems.
Simply stated, an organizational culture is, The way we do things
around here These definitions will become inherently clearer as one looks at
the characteristics of a high performing culture. In a true business setting or
environment, the organization culture is often also referred to as the corporate
culture. It is often said that the cultural differences can have a major effect on
the performance of organizations and the quality of work life experienced by its
members.
Characteristics of a High Performance Culture
12
13
Leadership and culture are two sides of the same coin. Leaders create and
change cultures, while managers live within them.
Two approaches to high performance include a humanistic framework
and a rational process framework. In the former, high performance will be
attributed to organizations which value trust, and empower their people, work
collaboratively, and connect effectively with the wider community through, for
example, the involvement of stakeholders external to the organization.
In the latter framework, high performance will be attributed to
organizations which exhibit characteristics such as the ability to interpret the
business environment, the ability to foresee and act upon new business
opportunities and the flexibility necessary to maintain core values while still
being able to adjust its output to meet new market demands or conditions.
Furthermore, the willingness to implement employee remuneration
strategies such as stock ownership schemes which increase productivity and
financial returns to the organizations are prevalent.
Elements of a strong organizational or corporate culture include the widely
shared real understanding of what the organization stands for. There is also a
concern for individuals over rules, policies, procedures, and adherence to job
duties.
Organizations with a strong corporate culture also have a recognition for
heroes whose actions illustrate the company's shared philosophy and concerns.
These organizations believe in building a common identity where there is a well
understood sense of the informal rules and expectations, thus enabling the
members of the organization to understand what is expected of them. There is
also a belief that what employees and managers do is important and that it is
equally important to share information and ideas.
The important aspects of an organization's culture will emerge from the
collective experience of its members. These emergent aspects of the culture
help make it unique and may well provide a competitive advantage for the
organization. Some of these aspects may be directly observed in its day-to-day
operations and workings, while others may be discovered, for example, by

have
suggested
more
encompassing
approaches
to
conceptualizing intelligence.
Sternberg suggests that there are other dimensions of intelligence:
social intelligence, emotional intelligence, or practical intelligence or what
scholars refer to as "street smarts. which indicates that an individual is not
limited simply because he or she has a below average academic intelligence or
IQ. Although Gardner did not use the term emotional intelligence (EQ), his
concepts of intrapersonal and interpersonal intelligences provided the basis for
the conceptualization of EQ. whereas intrapersonal intelligence is the ability to
understand one's own emotions; interpersonal intelligence is one's ability to
understand the emotions of others.
In his role as a consultant in organizations, Goleman found that
emotional intelligence (EQ) is twice more important than technical skills and IQ
for jobs at all levels. He also reported that emotional intelligence plays an
increasingly important role at the highest levels of a company. When he
compared "Star performers with average ones in senior leadership positions,
nearly 90% of the difference in their profiles was attributable to emotional
15

job related factors influenced the motivation of workers. The basic assumption
Hackman and Oldham put forward was simply that working hard and better
performance happens when work is satisfying and rewarding. it argued that
work has to be meaningful, that people must feel responsible and that they
depend on feedback in order to feel good about their job. Beyond factors such
as skill variety, task identity and task significance this human resource
model encouraged managers to make workers feel significant, identify and
perceive work as something meaningful.
Hackman and Oldham focused on on ready available aspects such
being responsibility for doing something significant; possessing enough
autonomy to catch the feeling of being part of a somewhat important task that
has to be done; and having freedom and discretion how to do the job that has
to be done is all in all encouraging motivating because the worker feels
responsible, significant, and autonomously. While Hackman and Oldham put
forward the brilliant idea that people not only needed to identify themselves with
the job to which somebody else had assigned them, they perform better when
they get the feeling and get a sense of being responsible and or doing
something significant that is good for their identity.
All in all, Weber, Taylor, Maslow, McGregor, McClelland, Hackman and
Oldham have in common although their differences could not be greater - that
they focus on personal and individual needs in order to find an answer how to
motivate people and they all refer although from a totally different angle to
some helpful atmosphere that encourage communication, relations and/or
group work or job performance and finally they all seem to be very closely to
argue although not yet explicitly that emotions and feelings play a major
role in organizing people.
While Max Weber and F.W. Taylor strongly believed that feelings
negatively interfere with their rationally planned conceptions how to do work,
most if not all early text that influenced HRM practices believed that social
environment and personal traits do have a positive impact of performance,
albeit job environment and work atmosphere were fully charged with strong
emotions they still did not yet fit the overall rationally designed concept about
organizing work. Max Webers belief in the possibility of rationality, exemplified

you were born with it or you weren't. More recently, greater emphasis has been
placed on empathy as a communication tool of substantial importance in the
medical interview, and many experts now agree that empathy and empathetic
communication are teachable, learnable skills. As we might therefore expect,
empathy is the cornerstone of several communication models, including "The
Four Habits" model (Invest in the Beginning, Elicit the Patient's Perspective,
Demonstrate Empathy, Invest in the End) developed by The Permanente
Medical Group's Terry Stein with Richard Frankel.
"The 4 E's" (Engage, Empathize, Educate, and Enlist) model used by the
Bayer Institute for Health Care Communication.
The "PEARLS" (Partnership, Empathy, Apology, Respect, Legitimization,
Support) framework adopted by the American Academy on Physician and
Patient, and other models.
Barriers to Giving Empathy
Because empathy is such a powerful communication skill, we might
suppose that clinicians would scramble to learn about and use it at every
available opportunity. However, this is not necessarily the case. Clinicians have
many reasons for not offering empathy to patients. An informal survey of
practicing clinicians participating in a recent clinician-patient communication
course
revealed
misgivings
(and
misconceptions)
about

the patient beyond the history and symptoms to include values, ideas, and
feelings. Benefits of improved empathetic communication are tangible for both
physician and patient.
Empathy versus Sympathy (and Versus Pity)
Despite some divergent opinion on the matter, it may propose a subtle but
important distinction between empathy and sympathy.
Whereas empathy is used by skilled clinicians to enhance communication and
delivery of care, sympathy can be burdensome and emotionally exhausting and
can lead to burnout. Sympathy implies feeling shared with the sufferer as if the
pain belonged to both persons: it sympathizes with other human beings when it
share and suffer with it. It would stand to reason, therefore, that completely
shared suffering can never exist between physician and patient; otherwise, the
physician would share the patient's plight and would therefore be unable to
help.
Harry Wilmer summarizes these three emotions--Empathy, Sympathy, and
Pity--as follows:
Pity describes a relationship which separates physician and patient. Pity is
often condescending and may entail feelings of contempt and rejection.
Sympathy is when the physician experiences feelings as if he or she were the
sufferer. Sympathy is thus shared suffering.
Empathy is the feeling relationship in which the physician understands the
patient's plight as if the physician were the patient. The physician identifies with
the patient and at the same time maintains a distance. Empathetic
communication enhances the therapeutic effectiveness of the clinician-patient
relationship.
The buzzword one hears ever so often today is empathy '. While
we have all heard of sympathy , which is synonymous with compassion, pity
and understanding, not many of us are aware of the importance of empathy,
which is even beyond any expression of sympathy. So, what then is empathy'
and why has it become so important today? According to a famous psychiatrist,
empathy is to see with the eyes of another, to hear with the ears of another
21
and to feel with the heart of another. This explanation will show you the exact
difference between sympathy' and empathy'. When you show sympathy, you
are an outsider who views the situation from a distance and feel for the person
experiencing the situation. But empathy' involves the observer totally at any
given level. There is a complete identification with the experiences perspective
and there is a total emotional connect. To the extent that one may even go
through sensations that identify one with the other person. It is, in short, a
holistic involvement.

becoming a psychologist, but it means being alert to how what you do and say
have an impact on others. A good way to improve in this area of Emotional
Quotient is to raise your self-awareness by completing an EQ assessment. If it
shows negative differences between how you and other people rate youre EQ,
then be aware that the Centre for Creative Leadership Studies in the United
States has found that over 75% of the reasons for career derailment among
leaders are related to emotional competencies.
Understanding and expressing your own emotions:
In former United States President Bill Clinton, the world sees a leader
who more readily engages with people because he communicates more than
just information. His communication shows how he feels about an issue in a
sincere and human manner. This is also why he is considered one of the
leading Democrat Politicians of all time in the United States. This has direct
relevance for business leaders, who all face the challenge to engage and
inspire others to be a part of the company vision and values. Executives have
to recognize and appropriately express their emotions. This is applicable
throughout the spectrum of activities: from the tone of conducting meetings and
presentations in formal board sessions with the top brass, to lively, inspiring
events designed for line staff.
Taking feelings into account when making decisions:
Many business situations demand analytical decision making, but the
high performance leader also knows that creativity and flexibility are not just

COMPETENCY AND PERFORMANCE
MANAGEMENT: A REVIEW OF RESEARCH
LITERATURE
26
Introduction:
Many organizations today are using the process of 360 degree
feedback to compare an individuals self assessment of his/her own
performance against key position and organization competencies to the
assessment of key stakeholders that the individual interacts regularly with.
The 360 feedback received is then used as input to the Individual Development
plan. David McClelland takes the position that definitions for various
competencies, which contain real-life examples of more competent behavior,
provide specific guideposts as to how to develop the competency. The
feedback information also provides a basis for career counseling or explaining
why a person should or should not be promoted.
First and foremost, individuals must demonstrate competencies. Perhaps the
most common place where they are demonstrated is within the scope of a
particular job or project involvement. However, competencies are also
developed and demonstrated by individuals in the following settings: volunteer
roles in the community, professional associations, school projects, sports
participation settings, and even within ones own home life.
Up to this point, it is implied that the main need for identifying and
performance competencies is for individuals who may be pursuing full-time
employment with an organization. However, the need for performance of
competencies also extends to independent contractors seeking project work
with those organizations that broker their services.

impact of top performers, both the 1997 study and the year 2000 update
revealed a gap between awareness of the talent issue and an effective
response to it. Only 14 percent of the managers in last years survey (as
opposed to 23 percent in 1997) strongly agreed that their companies attract
highly talented people. Only 3 percent of the respondents to both surveys
strongly agreed that their companies develop talent quickly and effectively. At a
time of greater awareness of the shortage of talent and increased competition
for it, the imperative to manage it effectively is more urgent than ever. Leaders
must make talent a priority at all levels of their organizations, create reasons for
top talent to choose their companies, rebuild their recruiting strategies, create
plenty of opportunities for development, and learn to identify their A (as well as
their less capable) performers and invest in them appropriately companies and
preempt positions
Good people are great for business
How much more does a high performer generate annually than an
average performer? Mean of responses from 410 corporate officers Source:

companies increased revenue in sales roles 40% increased productivity in

could have been used as development opportunities. Last year, nearly 60
percent of the respondents strongly agreed that they would be delighted if their
companies were quicker to dismiss underperformers or to move them into less
critical roles. Organizations that take talent seriously can deliver greater
shareholder value and start to realize the promise of competitive advantage
through better talent. But the implementation of that strategy must start at the
top: in the highest-ranked companies we studied, improving the strength of the
talent pool is among the top three priorities of senior leaders.

There are a lot of methods are there for performance the competence.
Some of them are as follows Personal credibility
Interpersonal effectiveness
Personal management
Relationship orientation
Continuous learning
Tolerance for stress/change/ambiguity
Creative/analytical/problem-solving approaches rive
Adaptability
Personal credibility
In todays fast-changing environment, it is important that
employees not only represent the organization well, but that they also
establish personal credibility in the account. In the 1970s, it was thought
positive if a person worked at one organization for their entire career,
putting in 30 or 40 years. This type of individual was thought to be stable
and productive because they knew the practices and protocols of the
organization. Things have changed dramatically in the 1990s. It is
expected today that the most valuable employee in the organization will
have two or three different jobs, maybe as many as six jobs, in their
lifetime.
While loyalty and commitment are still considered to be valuable
assets, equally important is diverse experience. Its thought that by

Relationship Oriention
The relationship oriented person sees other people as the best way
to achieve success. In an extreme case, almost everything such an
individual does in life must involve other people.

39
Key Behaviors:
Keeps the same style even when working under deadlines, tired, or
opposed on a point.
Stays calm when frustrated.
Works without making mistakes even when there are several conflicting
priorities.
Contributes constructive ideas even when everyone seems to hold an
opposing viewpoint.
Stays on course as policy or procedure changes suddenly.
Works well under tight deadlines.
Works well when having normal day-to-day stress in personal life.
Stays calm with irate citizens/clients.
Responds to citizens' needs in emergencies.
Key Words -- pressure, stability, opposition, conflict, deadlines,
problems, arguments, disruption, change, uncomfortable
Creative/analytical/problem-solving approaches
This is an approach to highly deep-rooted, intractable conflicts
that uses social-psychological analysis to identify the fundamental
human needs that underlie the conflicts and hence hold the key to
resolution. Typically, carefully chosen disputants from all sides meet with
a panel of conflict scholars in a week-long workshop. The scholars help
the disputants work together to analyze the fundamental sources of
conflict, focusing especially on unmet human needs (such as identity,
security, or recognition). After identifying these needs, the participants try
to develop approaches for restructuring their societies in a way that
meets the needs of all sides simultaneously.
40
Adaptability
Adaptability is a feature of a system or of a process. This word
has been put to use as a specialized term in different disciplines and in
business operations. Word definitions of adaptability as a specialized
term differ little from dictionary definitions. According to Andresen and
Gronau
[1]
[2]
However, the word definitions in these fields are just the starting points
for detailed analysis of system adaptability.
1 Development of the use of this term
2 Criteria of adaptability
2.1 Adaptability of a system
1. Development of the use of this term
In the life sciences the term adaptability is used variously. At one
end of the spectrum, the ordinary meaning of the word suffices for
understanding. At the other end, there is the term as introduced by
Conrad, referring to a particular information entropy measure of the biota
of an ecosystem, or of any subsystem of the biota, such as a population
of a single species, a single individual, cell, protein or gene.
In the technical research field this feature has been considered only
since the late 1990s. H. P. Wiendahl first introduced adaptability as a
necessary feature of a manufacturing system in 1999 [4]. The need to
consider adaptability arose in the context of factory planning, where it is
an objective to develop modular, adaptable systems. It has now become
an important consideration for manufacturing and system engineers.
2. Criteria of adaptability
41
APPROACHES TO RESULTS:
Across disciplines, management and program improvement texts
are littered with approaches to create and sustain the use of data.
Unfortunately, the proliferation of similar terms may undermine clear
communication and successful collaboration (Friedman, 2003). Among
the approaches, Results-based Management (RBM) trumpets making
decisions regarding programs based on recently measured results and
consideration of obstacles and facilitators facing current operations.
Another example, managing for Results (MFR), emphasizes building a
results focus into every aspect of management practice and routine.
With Caseys Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) effort, as with the
Annie E. Casey Foundations concept of Results Accountability, we
recognize that all who can contribute to finding solutions and making
improvements must be involved, not only managers.

1. WHAT IS ORGANISATIONAL EFFECTIVENESS?
Organizational Effectiveness, within the Office of Human Resources,
serves as a gateway to training, development, and consulting resources that
build organizational capacity, increase individual capabilities, and promote a
culture of excellence through strong leadership. The division collaborates with
institutional stakeholders to strategically and systemically address the
University's mission and goals.
Areas of service include:
Employee Career Services
Organizational Development
Leadership Development
Personal & Professional Development
Supervisory Training and Development
Training Services
An organization's effectiveness is also dependent on its communicative
competence and ethics. The relationship between these three is simultaneous.
Ethics is a foundation found within organizational effectiveness. An organization

ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURE
The founder of an organization has to make a series of decisions about
what business to be in, what the organizations goals and objectives are, what
work has to be performed to attain those goals, how the work will be divided
and coordinated, and who will do the work. These decisions may be
interdependent if the organization is small. Making one decision will affect
others. For example, the skills and abilities of the particular people hired into
the organization will then affect decisions about what the organization can do
and how it will do it.
Another simple form of organization would be a restaurant whose manager has
divided the staff into three groups: the bar, the food, and the service.
These simple forms could be much enlarged by adding more people to the
basic structure. But as more people work in an organization, coordination
becomes more difficult. There often isnt enough time for the manager to deal
with every person individually on every issue. To solve this problem, more
vertical division of labour would occur. In the travel agency an assistant
manager could be hired to manage the Corporate Travel department. Those
agents would report to the assistant manager, whose job would be to help them
sell, deal with problems, and manage their work life (holidays, pay, training,
etc.). The agency manager would then, in this example, manage the holiday
travel agents as well as the assistant manager of corporate travel.
Besides accounting, other staff services might include public relations,
advertising, finance, and legal services. However, whether these activities are
staff or a line service depends on the basic work of the organization. For
example, accountants working for a public accounting firm are line personnel,
not staff.
As an organization grows it may become inefficient to have employees
who each deal with many different products and/or a variety of clients. It begins
to make sense for the organization to increase the amount of specialization of
its personnel. The travel agency may assign its corporate travel agents to
different teams. Each team might then deal with only a certain group of
corporate clients or one large client such as a federal government department.

MEASURES OF STRUCTURE
50
Structure concerns more than the division of labor or the boxes on the
organization chart. It is also about the reporting relationships between
organizational members. These are the lines connecting the boxes, rules and
regulations about how the work is performed, and whether organizational
decisions are made at the top of the organization or lower down. In order to
compare one organizations structure with that of another or to study the effects
of structure on organizational performance, we need to have consistent ways to
measure structure. Three important structure measures are complexity,
formalization, and centralization.
Formalization refers to the extent to which job activity is defined and
controlled by rules. The more rules there are about how to do the work and how
decisions are made, the more an organization is formalized. Police
departments are often much formalized as the activities of officers are strictly
controlled by rules that cover almost every situation that may arise. A campus
radio station, on the other hand, may be much less formal, having only a few
rules governing the broadcasting behavior of station members.
Centralization concerns where in the organization decisions are made.
When decision-making is reserved for top management, vertical centralization
is high. Vertical centralization is low when lower-level employees in the
hierarchy are given decision-making authority. Horizontal decentralization
occurs when workers in many different organizational units are allowed to make
decisions without referring to a more central authority.
Organic organizations act more as living things. They have tasks that
are more interdependent and that are continually adjusted and redefined
through interaction with organizational members. An advertising agency such
as Saatchi & Saatchi needs to be flexible in dealing with customers and in
creating concepts for television commercials and print advertisements. In an
organic organization, control depends less on formal job position and more on
expertise relevant to the particular problem being considered. Communication
is both vertical (up and down the hierarchy) and horizontal (across different
departments of the organization) depending on where the needed information
resides. These communications primarily take the form of information and
advice. Commitment in the organic organization is to the organizations tasks

CHAPTER 5
CONCLUSION
53
CONCLUSION
Competency management is such a process by which one can
measure the working potential of a person or a group of Competency
performance is a process through which one assesses and determines
ones strengths as an individual worker and in some cases, as part of an
organization. It generally examines two areas: emotional intelligence or
emotional quotient (EQ), and strengths of the individual in areas like
team structure, leadership, and decision-making. Large organizations
frequently employ some form of competency performance to understand
how to most effectively employ the competencies of strengths of
workers. They may also use competency management to analyze the
combination of strengths in different workers to produce the most
effective teams and the highest quality work.
Competency management also requires some thought, time, and
analysis, and some people simply may not want to do the work involved
to sufficiently map competencies. Thus a book like the above is often
used with a human resources team, or with a job coach or talented
headhunter. Competency management alone may not produce accurate
results unless one is able to detach from the results in analyzing past
successes and failures. Many studies find that people often overestimate
their abilities, making self-competency performance results dubious.
Usually, a person will find himself with strengths in about five to
six areas. Some- times an area where strengths are not present is worth
developing. In other cases, competency management can indicate
finding work that is suited to ones strengths, or finding a department at
ones current work where one's strengths or needs as a worker can be
exercised.
A problem with competency management, especially when
conducted by an organization is that there may be no room for an
individual to work in a field that would best make use of his or her
competencies. If the company does not respond to competency
54
management by reorganizing its employees, then it can be of little shortterm benefit and may actually result in greater unhappiness on the part
of individual employees. A person identified as needing to learn new
things in order to remain happy might find himself or herself in a position
where no new training is ever required. If the employer cannot provide a
position for an employee that fits him or her better, competency
management may be of little use.
Finally, performance appraisals are an important part of performance
management. In itself an appraisal is not performance management, but
it is one of the range of tools that can be used to manage performance.
