Performance feedback session could be stressful time for employees as well, specially, if they don’t have previous experiences in performance management systems.
If the outcome of performance feedback meeting was not as expected, employees might feel that they are being judged or on their way to lose their jobs. They become de-motivated and demoralised. This could reflect on their behaviour as they become defensive, aggressive, or even abusive.
To minimise the negative reaction, the manager should:
• Stay positive,
• Provide the employee with the opportunity to explain and clarify causes of not meeting performance expectations,
• Assure the employee of what the purpose of the meeting is all about,
• Acknowledge the employee’s feeling, and

Career development is the ongoing process of managing your life, learning, and work.
It involves developing the skills and knowledge that enable employees to plan and make informed decisions about their education, training, and career choices.
When a manager monitor and evaluate the performance of an employee, the manager might realise the talent the employee has and how this talent could contribute the overall performance of the organisation. Organisations seek to retain good performers. One of the methods used is career development. An employee could be transferred from one department to another where he/she could contribute to the success of that department at a higher level of performance. Developing an employee’s career could, also, mean enhancing their competence within the context of their position and department.
Career development is not just beneficial to the organisation. The impact it has on an employee is valuable as well. It allows for the employee to align career goals with personal goals.
Career Development opportunities could be provided through:

According to research, majority of personnel hates the performance evaluation process from beginning to end. It is known that managers really hate the day to day procedures when it comes to finalizing a performance evaluation. In order to be an effective manager, they will need to have the distinguish traits. This paper will explain if there is a profile need for a manager that struggles during the performance evaluation process. Now on the other hand, it is important for managers to understand the key elements of the performance evaluation process. The main reason that many managers hate the performance evaluation process initially is that it’s aggravating.
Career development is comprised of three main objectives. The first objective is to meet human resource needs in a timely manner throughout the life of the business. The second objective is to provide information about open positions and opportunity for growth to the organization’s employees. The last objective is to use existing programs to develop and manage employee careers to match organizational plans and goals.
Organizations benefit from career development systems, as they allow for a better understanding of the current and future staffing needs for an organization. Consequently, they ensure the organization is as efficient as possible when recruiting and selecting talent. Also, by creating these plans, key talent can
Every organization works for its ultimate goal of attaining profit and to enjoying a good name in the society. Organizational success depends upon how the organization manages the information and process for attaining the target. For that the organization should have its own strategies and technologies for adequate knowledge management. Due to the drastic changes which has happened in our organizational working climate, career management intervention has to be given due importance for the performance of the workers. Human resource is considered as the most important asset of an organization but it is a true fact that no human being is complete. Solving of problems happens through sharing of experiences and knowledge among the individuals. However, individual career
Performance review process is a helpful source in which the work performance of an employee is reported and assessed. The performance review process is a vital factor of career development and include routine assessments of workers overall performance. According to Marien (1992), the performance review process is a "strategy session" in which the employee and the supervisor decide on the best path to customer satisfaction and personal development.
This committee is proposing a series of strategies to reduce turnover and bring in a motivating environment. One of the strategies we are proposing is the implementation of opportunities for development and growth. Some of the ways this strategy can be accomplished is by creating an individual development plan, providing performance metrics, providing opportunities outside of the job function, giving constructive feedback, removing barriers, linking to a professional network, outlaying resources and setting the example for employees to feel comfortable and have an open relationship with their manager and company. Managers need to sit down with the employee and discuss individual interests and career goals. This is a great way of bonding with

Although performance reviews have been in place for generations, until recently, very little effort was given to understanding whether the process motivated employees or irritated the. One may develop the most technically sophisticated, accurate appraisal system, but if that system is not accepted and supported by employees, its effectiveness ultimately will be limited (Fischer, 2010).A review of the evidence supporting the use of feedback (such as performance appraisal) suggests that providing personnel with feedback is like gambling in the stock exchange: On average, you gain, yet the variance is such that you have a 40% chance of a (performance) loss following feedback (Kluger & DeNisi, 1996 Vol 119(2)).
The current model of Performance management uses “Performance Review” to provide employees with feedback on their job performance. The issue with this mode is that it is not conducive to an organization that encourages its employees. Managers they are coaching their employees when in reality they just giving feedback, from manager to employee, about the employee’s work
Data analysis is undoubtedly one of the most critical parts of any quantitative or qualitative study. In qualitative research, data analysis relies on inductive reasoning processes to interpret and structure the meanings that can be derived from data (Thorne, 2000). In this study, data analysis focused on the perception and significance that participants assigned to their individual experiences regarding their performance feedback conversations. The purpose of data analysis was to capture the meaning and essence of the individual experiences of the participants in relation to the performance feedback process in their organization so that the significance of this phenomenon could be interpreted correctly in the

It is not merely a tool, but rather an act – an act of management (Ammons, 2015). One key best practice of performance management is having an effective appraisal cycle, as well as knowing how vital performance feedback is to the appraisal cycle and to the overall wellbeing of the human resources and to the company.
Career Development is defined as a shared responsibility between the employee and organization for career goal setting, T&D plan, development assignments, etc., aimed at facilitating horizontal and vertical movement within the employing organization (Cummings & Worley, 2005).
Shaping the critical decision of an organization is one of the superior position that employee can be reached in his or her career ladder. It can be obtained through the effective career development. Effective career development is important not only for individuals but also for the organizations that employ them (European Centre for the Development of Vocational Training, 2008). It meet both business needs such as employees’ loyalty, trust, commitment and individual needs such as job security, development and promotion in order to achieve resilience to handle change more effectively (Younis, Akram & Naseeb, 2013). The success, survival and competing power of organizations mainly depend on the commitment of the employees, supporting their developments and ensure their participations (Aydogdu & Asikgil, 2011).
Every organization is ought to manage finance, resources, information and people. Every organization seeks for the most knowledgeable and deserving candidate to work for the well-being of the company. The biggest challenge arises for an organization when the external environment constantly keeps changing as regards to the laws, culture, technology and other similar factors. For employees to do well and grow, they need to be encouraged on timely manner hence to stretch their full potential. Training and career development are very important for any organization that aims to progress. Training simply denotes to the process of gaining the necessary skills required for a certain job.
