Samuel Culbert, professor of management and organizations, was featured on NPR’s “Morning Edition” story “Behold the Entrenched — and Reviled — Annual Review.” The story cited research showing “between 60 percent and 90 percent of employees, including managers, dislike the performance evaluation.”
Culbert, author of “Get Rid of the Performance Review!” and “Beyond Bullsh*t: Straight-Talk at Work,” told NPR the annual review can often act as a screen behind which mediocrity hides. “They're fraudulent, bogus and dishonest,” he said. “And second, they're indicative of and they support bad management.”
