E13: Is Your Office Still Using this Outdated Management Strategy?

In episode 13 of the HigherEdJobs Podcast, Kelly and Andy talk about performance appraisals with Christopher Lee* and why they are outdated.

Do performance appraisals accomplish what they set out to do? Christopher Lee’s short answer, “Nope.”

Performance appraisals are often demotivating and negative. So how can job seekers find out if an office or department still uses performance appraisals? Lee advises that job seekers do their due diligence in finding out if the office they are seeking to work in has sound leadership, “interview the organization, and the leader, as they're interviewing you.”

We can’t wait to hear from you!
