title: MBO and performance appraisal.
abstract: Using an MBO approach, a nurse administrator tapped the resources of her staff to diagnose and resolve a performance appraisal problem. A new performance evaluation system that embodies the concepts of MBO resulted. Through this process, MBO was implemented at the unit level, where it had previously been resisted.
