摘要

This issue reflects two key themes: one, the measurement of the individual's performance within an organisation and two, decision techniques that can support the person conducting the performance evaluation. This focus on the individual is in tune with the oft-stated assertion that humans are the critical organisational resource. Perhaps the other notable factor relating to this issue is the degree of quantitative analysis and modelling involved in the papers. Is performance management moving more towards "science" than "art" - or does this simply reflect one of those coincidences that sometimes occur?
