Purpose Statement

The purpose of the qualitative study research is to understand the relationship between organizational strategies and appraisal systems. Each organization uses different strategic approaches to remain relevant and competitive (Subekti, 2021). The focus is on identifying whether the performance appraisal system should align with strategic management and how the stakeholders can achieve the objective (Zondo, 2018). The researcher's goal is to aid managers in developing an appraisal system that would aid them in attaining organizational objectives while enhancing employee performance, attracting investors, and motivating labor capital.

I will use a qualitative exploratory study design method to advance the study. The aim is to understand the relationship between strategic management and performance appraisal that researchers could use in future studies. The variables in the study are strategic management and performance appraisal systems. The research will target managers and employees in American companies. The participants will give their views on the performance appraisal system and how they contribute to achieving organizational aims. In particular, the managers will state how they craft employee assessments within their organizations. The research will be conducted in California in the manufacturing industry. A total of 100 participants from five different companies will participate in the study. They will be selected randomly to participate in the study. Random sampling is preferable in the study because it creates an equal chance of selecting participants with different attributes (Reeger, 2019). I will collect data using questionnaires. Each participant will respond to thirty questions that will be sent via their emails. Employees’ questions will be different from managers’. Data will be analyzed using the thematic data analysis approach. The study’s findings will help organizations to create evaluation techniques that suit their organizational culture.
