Appraise Strategies to Assist in Effective Job Evaluations

/in /by

Every year, the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) conducts the Federal Employee Viewpoint Survey. One of your areas of expertise is appraisal and evaluation, and as such, you have been invited (in your capacity as Director of Personnel Administration for Organization X) to be on a popular podcast to discuss in what ways, if any, this yearly research could be more effective across the board. The inspiration for the podcast and the prompt comes from a drop in response rates for the 2018 survey. In 2018, the percentage of federal workers who responded to the survey came in at almost five percentage points lower than those who responded to the prior years survey. The most concerning part of this drop are it happened on the heels of a push from OPM to improve response rates by moving from a survey sample to a census.
The podcast host emailed you as a courtesy, with the following prompt for the show:
As you know, if an employer waited until evaluation time to start thinking about an employees performance, the employee would be in for a weak evaluation. So, based on your expertise in the field of public service, in what ways (if any) could the OPMs survey be approached in a way that makes it a bit more realistic and reliable?
Review the survey in this weeks resources and formulate your response using survey data, the course readings, and any additional outside sources you find pertinent to the topic. You may also include personal experience in your response. Remember to cite your sources.
If you are new to podcasting, the information below might be helpful to you.
Remember, a podcast is a digital media file and may include some audio files, which is what you will create.
Write out your script for the podcast to both time it and to ensure you have included the required content.
Begin your podcast by providing relevant information and establishing a clear purpose that engages the listener.
Demonstrate thorough knowledge of the topic using relevant, quality details that go beyond the obvious.
Focus on your topic.
Be sure to include details from your experience on the topic along with your researched information.
Make sure there is a brief conclusion that connects the information in the podcast.
Use CaptureSpace to record your podcast. Instructions for using CaptureSpace are included in the Course Resources module.
Podcasts are evaluated based on the following information: 1) how well the introduction sets the scene; 2) clarity, accuracy, and relevance of content; 3) whether the conclusion provided a clear summary of the main points; 4) the structure and flow of the podcast, and 5) technical sound quality (volume and clarity). Creativity is also considered.

Adopter Categories: Characteristics
In Roger’s adopter categories, he acknowledges that not everyone possesses the same motivation to adopt new technologies.

1. Early adopters: This group tends to create opinions, which propel trends. They are not unlike innovators in how quickly they take on new technologies and ideas but are more concerned about their reputation as being ahead of the curve.

2. Early majority: If an idea or other innovation enters this group, it tends to be widely adopted before long. This group makes decisions based on utility and practical benefits over coolness.

3. Late majority: The late majority shares some traits with the early majority but is more cautious before committing, needing more hand-holding as they adopt.

4. Laggards: This group is slow to adapt to new ideas or technology. They tend to adopt only when they are forced to or because everyone else has already.

When comparing these groups, the progression of adoption is gradual and logical. Most marketers and business developers find that bridging the gap between early adopters and the early majority is their most vexing task. It represents a fundamental change in behavior to adopt something because it is new and cool and then progress to judging and adopting some innovation because it is valuable, useful, and productive. In the case of the early majority, coolness might be a detriment.
