Title of the Project: A Study on Performance Appraisal System With reference to

GeekSquares Technical Services Pvt. Ltd.

Statement of the problem: Every organisation follows a set of methods to evaluating the performance of
their employees. Some of the appraisals are done while maintaining utmost
confidentiality and some done in partially confidential way. But, rarely does one
come across a manager who is happy with the appraisal system in his
organisation. But the activity is continued ritually year after year. The situation
exists today in most organisations because of lack of understanding of potential
uses of performance appraisal system by everyone and also may be due to
improper scheming of performance appraisals. While some clear and simple
evaluation systems apply for low and middle level managerial staff, the methods
are not so formal and clear in case of top level managers and executives in
organisations.
