Designing an appraisal processes
The primary purpose of an appraisal process, often referred to as a performance review, is to assess an employee’s performance against established goals and expectations, identify areas for improvement and development, and provide feedback to the employee. It’s a structured dialogue between an employee and their manager to discuss achievements, challenges, and future goals.
Tailored appraisal processes for small and medium sized organisations
At People Business, we design performance appraisal systems specifically for small to medium organisations. We know that every business is different, which is why we never take a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, we work closely with you to build an appraisal process that reflects your unique culture, values, and strategic goals.
From the first conversation to final implementation, we work in partnership with you. Whether you’re building a new system or improving an existing one, we co-create an approach that is simple, effective and engaging. Every step is tailored—no templates, no off-the-shelf solutions— just what works best for your organisation and your team.
Driving performance through clarity and feedback
Our appraisal processes focus on more than just ticking boxes. We help you create meaningful conversations around performance, recognising individual contributions and identifying areas for development. By setting clear goals and promoting regular feedback, your team gains focus, direction, and a shared sense of purpose.
Boosting motivation and retention
A thoughtful appraisal process helps people feel seen, supported, and valued. This directly contributes to higher morale, stronger engagement, and improved staff retention. When employees understand how their work matters, they’re more motivated to perform and grow within your organisation.
Ongoing support and lasting impact
We don’t just hand over a process and walk away. We stay involved—offering training, guidance, and periodic reviews to make sure your performance review approach continues to deliver results. Our goal is to create an appraisal process that grows with your business and supports long-term success
