If an organization needs the best team members, the evaluation process is the stealth tool to success. 2) Poorly run organizations ignore the entire concept of feedback(whether formally or informally, verbally or in writing). 3) Average organizations expend some time on basic compliance(ensuring that everyone completed the required forms by the required dates) but with no education to team members about why the process exists and how it could benefit them.
