Performance review is the overall analysis of employee performance and their progress
level within the organisation. The performance appraisal review subordinates
performance progress of a week month or you depending on the requirement of company.

With help of performance appraisal it is easier for entity to examine the potential
subordinates increases the productivity of business
It can be seen from the above that performance appraisal process is build-up of simple
steps which can be used by the manager within the organisation to improve the
performance as well as implement it to achieving the best outcomes.
Urgent & important
Technology- It is important and urgent which is
essential for improving the productivity. By
using of technology, it is easier to gain
knowledge which will help in increasing the
productivity at higher level. (Rose, 2018).
Important tasks- Role reversal Is being
considered as urgent important task because in
this the job is being reversed for example I am
asking other employee to do my work in his or
her way and rate my performance.
Another task which is important and urgent is
carrying out training and development
programs so that technical skills are developed
at higher level it can be used for ongoing work
Avoiding interruptions- It is urgent as well as
important which is required to be at priority
level to increase the productivity. By avoiding
interruptions, productivity get increased at
broader level.
Not urgent but important
Networking relationships- This task is also
important but not urgently required. By focusing
on this one, developing a relationship helps in
getting the work done properly.
Break- This task is not urgent but important
because continuous work mode will increase a
stress level. So, taking a break is crucial so that
productivity increases at broader scale.
Tasks- In this task, important task is to review
the work and break down the complex
procedure into simpler system so that stress is
reduced amongst to work environment.
In this quadrant, important task is to take
participate in every organisational activity so
that positive relationship is developed with every
member.
Urgent but not important Not urgent not important

Multi-tasking- Another task is multi-tasking
which is urgently required in some situations but
is not important to adopt. Not every individual is
capable for doing multi-task, so this is to be
adopted at time of urgency. This also increases
productivity at wider scale.
Getting feedbacks- In this , it is to carried out
at time of urgency but is not important. So,
getting feedback assist in analysing the weak
spots and also enhances productivity.
TASKS- This quadrant also requires task which
is urgent and it is to have an alternative of
knowledge another field so that it can be
beneficial for both subordinate as well as
company.
Urgent task is to analyse the progress level so
that work is carried out properly and feedbacks
are gained
Perfectionism- This task is neither urgent nor
important because perfectionism creates
problems and slows down the task progress and
productivity. This sometimes increase the
productivity but with encountering problems.
(Frunză, 2017).
Productive hours- This states that there are
working hours in which individual is more
productive. But this is not urgent or crucial as it
depends upon the person to person.
TASKS- The task which fit in this content is to
complete the work with overall analysis with
proper market research.
Other task is to complete targets on daily basis
to achieve higher productivity within the
business
From the above stated paragraph, it has been seen that by examining the value of
every task is essential which is needed to be carried out accordingly.
3. Based on the feedback received through consultation, re-prioritise tasks in the following
priority matrix. If priorities remain unchanged, simply remove the matrix below and
add a suitable comment instead.
Prioritising of matrix-
Urgent & important
Technology- It is important and urgent which is
essential for improving the productivity.
Not urgent but important
Multi-tasking- After consulting it to my
supervisor I have analysed that multi-tasking is
important but not urgently required.

Avoiding interruptions- It is urgent as well as
important which is required to be at priority
level to increase the productivity. By avoiding
interruptions, productivity get increased at
broader level.
Getting feedbacks- It is also changed that
getting feedbacks are important for increasing
productivity but not urgent.
Urgent but not important
Networking relationships- This is used at
time of urgency but not important as not
everyone have networks. (Siegrist, 2016).
Break- This task is to be carried out whenever
there is need of urgent and it depends upon
situation whether break is required not.
Not urgent not important
Perfectionism- This task is neither urgent nor
important because perfectionism creates
problems and slows down the task progress and
productivity.
Productive hours- This states that there are
working hours in which individual is more
productive. But this is not urgent or crucial as it
depends upon the person to person.
There is need of prioritising matrix because the needs as well as importance of tasks
changes from time to time. So, it re-prioritising has been done in above discussed table
accordingly. Therefore, tasks & quadrants changes with situations or time.
