SLP 2

Module 2 – SLP

Social Media and HR; Behavioral Anchored Rating Scales; Simulation Training

Behaviorally anchored rating scales (BARS) directly assess performance 
behaviors. The BARS method depends on critical incidents or short descriptions of effective and ineffective behaviors that ultimately produce a number value. The assessor is responsible for rating the specific behaviors of an employee based upon the behavioral expectations that are provided as anchors. When rating the employee, most employers prefer to also provide written feedback for why the employee received a specific rating.

“Typically, supervisors rate several performance dimensions using BARS and score an employee’s overall job performance by taking the average value across all the dimensions” and “because the critical incidents convey the precise kinds of behaviors that are effective and ineffective, feedback from BARS can help an employee develop and improve over time.”

SLP 2 Assignment:

·
Following the examples above, create a similar BARS instrument (based on your current position) with at least FIVE different areas of assessment. Meet with a colleague or supervisor to have him or her evaluate your behaviors. Discuss the results with your colleague/supervisor to figure out where you scored highest and where you scored lowest.

·
Write a paper discussing the following issues:

·
Your results

·
The process you went through

·
How your instrument can be adjusted for optimal results

·
What the strengths and weaknesses of BARS are

·
How the feedback from the BARS can help an individual improve over time

·
How BARS compares to two other performance appraisal processes

·
Other recommendations you may have

This pragmatic approach will help you get into the routine of continuously being evaluated. You will submit both the BARS instrument that you created and the paper.

Bring in 
at least 2 library sources to help strengthen your discussion.

Your paper should be 
at least 2-3 pages, (not including the cover sheet and reference list). Deal with these issues in an integrated fashion, not as a series of individual questions.

Please upload your submission by the module due date. 

SLP Assignment Expectations

Demonstrate critical thinking and analysis of the relevant issues and HRM actions, drawing on your background reading and research.
