  1. Assignment 3 Instructions

  2. For Each Memo/Email • You need to respond by: • Replying to the email with your own reply email • Telling how important the email is – either high importance, medium importance, and low importance • Finally you may add additional actions (optional)

  3. Context of the case • The company is using a graphic rating scale • The rating scale is a 5-point scale with no verbal descriptions – thus it is difficult to give feedback • Traits are evaluated • Scale is used for most jobs – thus it may not be job-related

  4. Example email • FROM: Mary Smith, Purchasing, mary_smith@pc.ol.com • SUBJECT:         Annual Performance Review • TO:                  Human Resource Department, sandy@hrm.ol.com • I have a troublesome question to ask you.  I would ask this of my supervisor but she is not here now as she is currently in the hospital.  For over 20 years I have received an overall performance review, and my evaluations have all shown that I am an excellent employee.  I am five years from retirement and, frankly, I have reached the point where performance evaluations are not of any consequence to me.  I know I am going to do a good job.  I also know that I will not be promoted or transferred, and I am at the top of my pay grade.  Therefore, why should I continue to be evaluated formally?

  5. Good Response • From: Human Resource Department, sandy@hrm.ol.com • To: Mary Smith, Purchasing, mary_smith@pc.ol.com • Every employee at our company gets a performance review. It is part of our strategy that all employees receive good feedback. Performance appraisals have multiple purposes – merit increases, promotions, developmental feedback – thus I believe we should continue to give you feedback on your performance no matter the length of your service. • (Medium Importance) • You may want to include an additional note of explanation for your response if you feel it is necessary (optional).
