While companies that serve local or regional markets may utilize in-house delivery resources, most businesses use third-party logistics (3PL) or engage in partnerships. Some of the larger players in online and omnichannel retail have acquired or built their own networks for B2C delivery and train workers for the future. Manufacturers and intermediary goods producers face a series of different obstacles in their B2B logistics in the domestic market. Readings for this assignment provide a broad perspective on today’s distribution channels.

Module 5: Discussion Forum

Individual performance appraisals, which are conducted on an annual or semi-annual basis, have been criticized over the last decade. In fact, many researchers and practitioners promote the benefits of daily and consistent performance feedback.  Many merit and bonus pay systems take into consideration an individual or team’s performance levels or ratings. Therefore, for many organizations, it is critical to have a system in place that measures the performance and productivity of individuals, teams, departments, and the organization as a whole.  Leadership has an influential role in an organizational culture and overall performance of an organization.

In this discussion, research a leadership’s role in performance management and how individual performance can be linked to the organization’s strategies. Provide two performance management strategies that can make a positive impact on the organization.

Answer the above using the question and answer (Q&A) format.  The Q&A format should include the original question along with your response. Within your post, support your responses with information from at least one peer-reviewed/scholarly source (not older than 3-5 years) from  CSU Global online library or the Internet, and provide the full citation at the end of your post. Use APA guidelines (at the CSU Global Writing Center )  to format your references. Your total word count must be at least 300 words excluding the original questions.
