Communication

In today's fast-paced world communication is suffering. I'd bet that most of you don't have time to communicate as fully as you once did. Yet communication is more vital than ever because the pace is so rapid.

When we get rushed, we forget to tell employees what we expect or, worse yet, we fail to let them know that they aren't meeting expectations. The appraisal's greatest value as a communication tool lies in its ability to help us determine where we aren't communicating as effectively as we should.
