Question 2: You have just been promoted to manager of your department. Your supervisor has asked that you review the current performance management system measures in place, and make any possible suggestions. Would you enlist input from the employees in your department? Why, or why not? List and interpret the criteria you would use to evaluate the current performance management system.
Question 3: Evaluate the importance of employee feedback from the manager's stand point, as well as, the employee's stand point.
