Year 1 – 2016
The above results show how the management took decisions for Year 1; the results show that Baldwin is was not following its strategies and achieving its planned objectives.
In the first year Baldwin was selling only one product called Baker in the US and Asian markets. Baker was created as a budget product with a long service life to ensure that our customers are satisfied and demand is high. Baldwin had the highest market share in Asia but at the same time had the lowest sales and maximum losses. As we focused more on the Asian markets, we misjudged the consumer demand and hugely over produced and sold the product at a cheaper price to make sure our customer satisfaction rating is high. Since we overproduced than customer demand, our selling, general and administrative costs were at least three times higher than the other teams. Apart from the high production and labor costs, we spent over our budget for marketing and promotion. Due to this over budget and miscalculated expenditure, Baldwin received an emergency loan to finance the cash crunch and avoid bankruptcy.
Year 2 – 2017 In Year 2, Baldwin decided to enter the European market and launch a new product in Asian and American market, Betty. Entering a new market and the launch of new product had a
Performance appraisal is a method which is increasingly used to evaluate employees to determine the degree to which they are performing effectively and encourage them to direct their energies towards organizational performance. Although the appraisal is being practiced, there are criticisms made against the system which generally arise from within the Orthodox and radical management frame work.
Baldwin's purchasing, inventorying, and production costs over and above the added costs that would be

A process evaluation is a tool utilized to identify the key components of intervention that are effective and under what conditions. Additionally it also evaluates the extent to which a program is being implemented as planned. A process evaluation can be broken down into six steps which are depicted in the diagram below. In order to engage stake holders the process must begin at the evaluation cycle. Stakeholders in regards to our program include those who are directly involved with program operations. This includes the staff utilized to procure supplies and equipment, those involved in the delivery of supplies equipment, those who distribute educational materials, those that perform diabetic testing and those that interact with the target
Brian, this is your annual performance evaluation report for the period of August 01, 2015 to July 31, 2016. During this time you worked as a Tax Program Technician I (TPTI) in the Collection Account Resolution Services Group C (CARS – C) of the Advisory, Analysis, and Services Bureau (AASB).
Program evaluation is a system that determines a program’s effectiveness and efficiency. This means whatever the programs expectations are must be kept. Efficiency is measured by the outcomes that are achieved with effort, limited time and additional resources. Excellent program evaluation includes subjective or objective information based on many different options. Human Services programs are important to evaluate for numerous reasons. The program can save time by finding out what works or doesn’t work for them. Making the community more aware of the program and how it benefits participants. The ability to prove the program’s effectiveness can help raise additional funding. The staff of the agency will be able to identify strengths and weakness. Also, bring more awareness to the Human Services field by educating other programs how to get started.
According to Mertens and Wilson, program evaluation is a systematic method for collecting, analyzing, and using information to answer questions about projects, policies and programs, particularly about their effectiveness and efficiency. Stakeholders often want to know whether the programs they are funding and supporting are effective. While program evaluation first focuses on the effectiveness of the program, other important factors to take into consideration is cost of the program, improvements that could be made, outcomes of the program, and usefulness of the program. Evaluators help to answer these questions, and stakeholders have to work with the evaluators in order to come to the best conclusion about the effectiveness of a program so that all aspects are taken into consideration. Program evaluations can involve both quantitative and qualitative methods of research. People who do program evaluation come from many different backgrounds, such as sociology, psychology, economics, social work, and public policy. Some graduate schools also have specific training programs for program evaluation.
I enjoyed reading your post. As we have learned during this discussion board through our classmates, there are a plethora of different ways that can be used to evaluate programs. You gave numerous examples as to why program evaluations are important in early childhood education and why they are conducted in the first place. Another reason that program evaluations are conducted are to see if the program is working (Gilliam & Leiter, 2003). For instance, the Head Start Program at my school constantly makes changes to their program due to their yearly evaluation. If they see that something is not working, the head of the program tries to come up with different ways to change what is not working to try and make the program better for the students.

When looking back on our directed performance based on The Rover, I have broadened my understanding of how the gender of a performer affects the character that they are presenting. Our task was to switch gender roles and have our actors perform to the extremes of gender binary conventions; we achieved this by through the exaggeration of gender stereotypes. This firstly included costume with male with male actors stuffing cloth down their dresses in order to create huge breasts, female actors wore masculine clothing such as shirts and used cloth to create broaden their shoulders as well as fake moustaches. We aimed to exaggerate the costumes as much as possible in order to widen the spectrum between both genders and maximise our exploration

Throughout history, PMS clearly have a considerable contribution to evaluate the success of organisations. According to Neely et al. (2002), performance measurement is "the process of quantifying the efficiency and effectiveness of past actions". Moullin (2003) indicates that "PM is evaluating how well organisations are managed and the value they deliver for customers and other stakeholders". The modern accounting framework can be traced back to the Middle Ages and since that time appraisal of performance has primarily been ground on financial criteria (Bruns, 1998).
