The Appraisal Game
A Northgate  Training Game

Focusing on:

• Understanding what appraisals are all about
• Understanding the benefits of appraisal
• Ability to prepare for, and conduct, an appraisal interview
• Identifying ‘critical incidents’ in the work of an employee.

This training exercise is ideal for getting people up to speed for conducting appraisals or attending the appraisal interview.

Getting misconceptions out in the open
This training activity starts by demolishing some common misconceptions about appraisals.

Next, participants work in teams to investigate the problems, benefits and fears about appraisal as well as looking at the type of forms used.

Finally, teams prepare one of their members for the role of appraiser or appraisee. An appraisal interview is then 'acted out' with the rest of the team observing and feeding back on what went well and what might have been done differently.

A proven training resource that gets people's fears and problems out into the open and shows them how to see appraisal more positively.

Comments from Users of this Training Material

“My overall impression about The Appraisal Game is that it is brilliant! What makes it brilliant for me is that it can be used flexibly and different parts can be combined depending on what trainees need. Also, it fits beautifully with other developmental training such as feedback, teamwork, assertiveness and reaching agreement. This is the best training activity about appraisals I have seen.”

“The Appraisal Game is an excellent training exercise - the group was active the whole time. All felt they had learned a lot from each other and have since produced some good appraisals.”
