Achievable

year”

KEY RESULTS - STATISTICS

OBSERVATIONS
Other than Sales teams, a substantial majority of the ERIKS APAC employees are
appraised on the basis of “Job Description” rather than “KPI”.
I.e. the basis of appraisal is not “Specific” and/or not “Measurable”, and is
therefore not a “KPI”, let alone “SMART”.
