"Possibly the biggest issue, however, is that performance……" — Jeffrey Pfeffer

"Possibly the biggest issue, however, is that performance appraisals focus managers attention on precisely the wrong thing: individual people. As W. Edwards Deming, the father of the quality movement, taught a long time ago, company performance often results more from variations in systems than from the individuals doing the work."

— Jeffrey Pfeffer
