Performance Appraisal as a Natural Function

Abstract: A 5 page paper discussing performance appraisal as an integral part of human history. There are examples of social and personal approval from every period of recorded history, emanating from many diverse cultures. The pattern can be seen even in the animal world, giving credence to the position that conducting and acting on the results of performance appraisal constitute quite normal, intrinsic activities.
