items and process payments without needing

manage these machines instead.

employee’s current and past performance as
against certain predetermined standards. This
process includes defining the job, appraising
performance and providing feedback.

to grow and realize their full potential.

career. They usually mean more pay,
responsibility and job satisfaction.

rewards paid to employees by the
employer/firm. It may be in the form of direct
financial payments (Time based or
Performance based) like salaries and indirect
payments like paid leaves.
Everyone: Red Lobster Restobar operates
over 30 seafood restobar in the country,
employing more than 300 people. When Red
Lobster Restobar developed a new business
strategy to focus on value and improve its
image, it established a new vision, mission,
and goals for the company. The restaurant
chain simplified its menu with the highest-
quality seafood it could offer at mid-range
prices, traded its restaurants’ tropical themes
for a crisp, clean look with white shirt-and-
 black-pants uniforms for its employees, and
added Northeastern coastal imagery to its
menu and Web-site. Executing the new
mission and differentiation strategy required
hiring fun, hospitality-minded people who
shared its values.
