Summary
It‘s a system – not an one-time incident
First, think about results – not about the tool
Be clear about who the customer is
Consider internal conditions – organization, supervision and work
Even under hierarchical conditions performance appraisal does did not fully work
In an agile environment traditional performance appraisal does not work
Agility requires focused, social, open approaches, driven by employees and customers
