The experience of poor performance is universal; everyone has performed poorly at one time or another. The real significance of poor performance is found in correcting it—understanding why the poor performance occurred and developing plans to prevent similar poor performance in the future. The first step is describing the event in detail, including an assessment of how the performance came to be labeled as “poor”. The second step involves listing all the possible contributing causes of the poor performance. In doing so, consider internal as well as external factors. The rest of the process is largely useless if no plan is developed to ensure better performance in the future. How do you Correct Poor Performance? At one time or another, each of us has had a poor performance of some kind. It may have been a poor test result in school, a poor presentation at work, or a poor performance in an athletic event. Think of a poor performance event that you have experienced and work through the following three steps. Step 1. Briefly describe the specific event in some detail. Include why you label it a poor performance (bad score? someone else’s evaluation?). Step 2. Analyze the poor performance. a. List all the possible contributing causes to the poor performance. Be specific, such as the room was too hot, you did not get enough sleep, you were not told how to perform the task, etc. You might ask other people for possible ideas, too. 1. _________________________ 2. _________________________ 3. _________________________ 4. _________________________ 5. _________________________ 6. _________________________ 7. _________________________ b. Is there a primary cause for the poor performance? What is it? Step 3. Plan to correct the poor performance. Develop a step-by-step plan of action that specifies what you can change or do differently to improve your performance the next time you have an opportunity. Include seeking help if it is needed. Once your plan is developed, look for an opportunity to execute it.

Step-1
I consider my first time GMAT examination a form of poor performance. I had an aim of scoring more than 700 (out of 800). I ended up with 630 only. The score indicated that my math score was adequate to achieve a 700+ score while the verbal score was very poor.
Step-2
(a) I have identified the following reasons behind this poor performance –
I used to work in a factory environment and it was difficult to take out adequate time for preparation.
I was genuinely weak in verbal skills. I had a weak foundation in there.
There was lack of practice in ‘real’ examination condition.
My study pattern was haphazard i.e. I didn’t plan very well to fill the knowledge gaps.
I was very nervous on that very day of the examination.
I also had a tight budget. With that budget, I was unable to join professional courses for GMAT preparation and mock tests.
The experience of the examination center was something very new to me which lead me to become really overwhelmed.
(a) Having mentioned the above points, I would call the lack of planned preparation as the primary reason for the poor performance.
Step-3
If I got a second opportunity, I would definitely follow the following step-by-step plan –
First, I will start with registering myself for a professional course and note my present level by appearing in some of the mock tests. I will analyze the questions where my answers are going wrong and note the pattern of mistakes.
With the pattern of mistakes, it will be clear to me that what should be learning path or the point of focus of my study. In this manner, I will plan my study materials and topics. I will study and solve questions module-wise and check my accuracy.
I will devise a daily planning for what to study and abide by that plan (both the content and time). At the end of few modules, I will reappear a mock test and will monitor the progress.
I will also seek the guidance of teachers and other students of the professional course where I find difficulties.

  1. Company ZYX is a small consulting organization with 40 employees. The manager who is responsible for employee performance appraisal has a particular way of conducting it. He has a firm belief that formal performance evaluations (with developed criteria, ratings, formal discussions etc.) are an absolute waste of time and should never be done. Instead, he thinks that he is well familiar with each employee’s work and achievements, and he can easily tell “what they are worth” by interacting with them and observing their performance on a daily basis. As a result, the manager periodically stops at employees’ desks, talks to them, asks about their progress on projects and discusses other work-related issues. Employees have a lot of daily feedback and seem to like it. However, no written performance appraisal forms are ever filled in. When it comes to pay raises and promotion, the manager makes his decisions and announces them to employees during meetings. Do you think this manager’s performance appraisal is sustainable in the long run? Explain your answer? Would you suggest any changes in the manager’s approach to performance appraisal? Explain.
