Contrast three performance appraisal techniques, the alternation ranking method, BARS, and the forced distribution method.

Scenario:

Ali, the manager of the manufacturing department at XYZ Company, is in the process of evaluating the performance of their staff. He has determined that 10% of the group will be identified as high performers, 25% as above average performers, 30% as average performers, 25% as below average performers, and 10% as poor performers. Which performance appraisal tool has Ali chosen to use and why? If you would be in place of Ali, what you would do to improve the performance of the employees and increase the percentage of the high performers?

Develop a training program for XYZ Company so that the performance of the employees can be enhanced. Make sure to design the program step by step.
