According to Scott Adams, creator of the comic strip(系列漫画)Dilbert, the annual performance review is "one of the most frightening and weakening experiences in every employee’s life", Adams’ stories and comic figures poke fun at the workplace, but his characterization of people’s feelings about the annual performance review has its serious side. Although a recent study of 437 companies indicates that effective annual performance reviews can help raise profits, most employees of those companies hate them.
In theory, annual performance reviews are constructive and positive interactions between managers and employees working together to attain maximum performance and strengthen the organization. In reality, they often create division, undermine morale, and spar anger and jealousy. Thus, although the object of the annual performance review is to improve performance, it often has the opposite result. A programmer at an IT firm was stunned to learn at her annual performance review that she was denied a promotion because she wasn’t a "team player". What were the data used to make this judgment? She didn’t smile in the company photo.
Although this story might sound as if it came straight out of Dilbert, it is a true account of one woman’s experience. By following a few ideas and guidelines from industry analysis, this kind of ordeal can be avoided.
To end the year with a positive and useful performance review, managers and employees must start the year by working together to establish clear goals and expectations.
It may be helpful to allow employees to propose a list of people associated with the company who will be in a good position to assess their performance at the end of the year, these people may be co-workers, suppliers, or even customer.
Goals should be measurable but flexible, and everyone should sign off on the plan.
By checking employees’ progress at about nine months, managers can give them a chance to correct mistakes and provide guidance to those who need it before the year is out.
When conducting the reviews, managers should highlight strengths and weaknesses during the past year and discuss future responsibilities, avoiding punishment or blame.
In short, when employees leave their performance reviews, they should be focusing on what they can do better in the year ahead, not worrying about what went into their files about the past.
In his comic strip Dilbert, Scott Adams______.
选项
A、makes fun of working people
B、tells a story about a woman employee
C、promotes team spirit among co-workers
D、mocks annual performance reviews
答案
D
解析
本题为细节分析题。根据文章第一段“the annual performance review is“one of the most frighteningand weakening experiences in every employee’s life”.Adams’stories and comic figures poke fun at theworkplace…”可知,Adam的漫画嘲弄年终业绩评估,觉得它是最令员工们恐慌和削弱他们积极性的一个东西。D选项符合原文意思。A选项说“取笑工作的人员”,不符合原文意思。B选项并未提及,C选项与原文意思正好相反。因此,D选项为正确选项。
