communication with employees as pertaining to how their job performance stands with
organizational expectations. "At the organizational level, numerous studies have reported
positive relationships between human resource management (HRM) practices "and
performance improvement at both the individual and organizational levels.

components in helping an organization achieve strategic initiatives". It has been argued

development in problem areas, as determined by the appraisal, must be offered. PAs can
especially be instrumental for identifying training needs of new employees. Finally, PAs
