Findings and analysis
Employee performance problems faced by the organization:
Samsung has been able to engage the individual staffs for the effective and the efficient
performance of the entity. The management department of Samsung faces the following
problems in their employee performance:
The major problems faced by these department that the management are unable to retain
their existing employees. The management department are mainly focusing on the recruitment
sector of the organisation. The existing employees are unable to adopt the new updated
technology in their organization, therefore they are mostly looking forward in resigning from
their post because of their dissatisfaction. In the last 12 month’s data it is reflected that the
company are unable to retain their exisiting employees (Rani et al., 2016).
The problem faced by the management department that the organization’s management
are providing the out of expertise work to the employees. By this the employees get panicked
and they started to think that they are not eligible for the job profile therefore their performances
as well as their productions get hampered for such things. The management are unable to detect
the employee’s skills and their specialization as the task should be allocated as per their skills
and their specializations (Wu et al., 2017).
The best performance appraisals methods:
The management should introduce that is the feedback session should be done and based
on the proper feedback given the employees should be rewarded.
The organization’s manager are required to develop a feedback session where the
employee’s identity will not be disclosed to any of the departments. The data collected in this

6TEAM MANAGEMENT AND COOPERATION
performance evaluation method will be analyzed for appraising such employees. Through this
method Samsung will be able to identify the basic portions where they are lacking in maintaining
the desired performances of the employees. The management are required to rely upon the
stakeholders for introducing this employees performance appraisal methods. This method will
help the employees to share their core problem they are facing while working with this
organization and could also recommends the effective ways for resolving the employees
performance problems. The employees are also allowed to point out the portions where they are
lacking. The management team will be able to understand the factors on which they should
immediately focus for retaining their existing employees (Akhter et al., 2016).
The major strength of this appraisal method is that the manager will be able to know the
talents and the abilities of the employees and that can be easily transferable into their
performance skills. This will help the organization to increase their productions for getting more
profits in the business markets. The weakness of the appraisal method is the employee’s behavior
of not opening up their core issues or the bad news because of the fear of confronting or having
the attitude of asking too many questions will hamper the performance appraisal process
(Manolache & Netedu, 2017).

Justification
The reason for selecting suitable candidates for the HR department is that the
responsibility of the HR managers in an organisation is more. The manner by which the
management department can contribute in the development of an organisation can point to the
fact that organisations possess good quality employees (Hanaysha & Tahir, 2016). The required
resources for the development of the training can be justified by keeping in mind that the trainers
can provide examples about the manner in which they have been successful in the ranks (Zhang,

8TEAM MANAGEMENT AND COOPERATION
Yu & Lv, 2017). The management department can also ensure that every employee in an
organisation is treated equally. For Samsung this can help in maintaining the ethical constraints
that exist in the company.

Justification
For Samsung to continue its growing success, it is necessary that the company continue
to develop and in the process ensure that loyalty of the customers be maintained. The application
of the training requirements provided can help Samsung to provide satisfactory results to the
customers and maintain its goodwill.
Assessment of the training using Kirkpatrick’s method
Kirkpatrick’s model is one of the best training model that are used by organizations to
schedule training levels for employees. The application of Kirkpatrick’s model can help in
analysing the level of the training provided by Samsung. In the first training instance, that is the
development of training in the management department Level 2 of the Kirkpatrick’s model can
be applied mainly because the candidates are provided with a learning curve. In the second
training requirement, that is the development of customer service skill, Level 3 of the model that
is the behaviour can be implemented (Moreau, 2017). This can help in ensuring effective
behaviour with the customers.
Conclusion
Conclusion can be made based on the strengths and weakness of the performance
appraisal adopted in Samsung. The strength of the technique is that based on the technique that
talents of the employees can be used as skills. However, the weakness is that the attitude of the

10TEAM MANAGEMENT AND COOPERATION
employees can be curbed with the results obtained from the appraisal. This may have a negative
impact on the performance of the employees.
After the analysis of the training sessions, conclusion can be made about the strengths
and weaknesses of the sessions. It has been seen that the strengths of the training is that it
addresses the specific issues that are required to be developed by Samsung. The weakness is that
it does not provide enough time for proper development as one day training session cannot cover
entire issues associated with Samsung.
