I would like the assessment choice to be Coffee – Columbia and Vietnam. I want to dicuss topic selection before proceeding with the report.

Task: Research a company’s publicly documented performance management approach and analyze that system (be sure to cite your source)

Things to include:

1. Description of the System What type of performance appraisal system is used (e.g., rating scales, 360-degree feedback, management by objectives, narrative/essay)? How does it work? How often do reviews occur? Who is involved in the process?
2. Rating Errors Identify and explain at least 2 rating errors that can occur in this system. Rating errors are common mistakes evaluators make when assessing performance (examples from your readings include halo effect, recency bias, leniency, central tendency, and others). For each error, explain how it could realistically show up in the system you’re describing.
3. Recommendations for Improvement Propose at least 3 ways to improve the system based on your readings. One of these must address rater training (how managers are prepared to conduct fair and accurate reviews). For each recommendation, explain WHY it would improve the system.

1.Boeings New Quality Transformation Program: Will It Fly?

Will Boeings new Quality Transformation program fly?

Boeing is revamping quality inspection processes and plans to eliminate up to 900 quality inspector jobs over the next two years. The plan involves mechanics doing more checks of their own work, rather than using inspectors to verify accuracy. In addition, automated processes or tools make mechanics work simpler, more accurate, and faster, further reducing the number of inspections needed. Another key to the program is using sampling rather than inspecting every job for accuracy.

In December, however, Boeings sampling process indicated that one job category failed to meet its 95% standard, with only 93% of the sampled tasks being done correctly. Additionally, some unionized quality inspectors are concerned that quality is being compromised and that Boeing may be pressuring inspectors to make it look like the new processes are doing the job even if they arent.

1. Where did Boeing get its inspiration for the new quality approach?

2. How does Process Monitoring (Boeings sampling process) work? What happens if a job fails to pass the quality test?

3. Given the latest problems with the 737 Max did the new quality approach work?
