Abstract:
Self-evaluation exercise remains unpopular among many employees
and leaders across the globe. This is partly driven by the fact that
many people would not want to find out how they are performing as
employees or leaders in their respective organizations. This paper
presents findings carried out on ten employees at the Ministry of
Works in Kenya and their Chief Finance Officer. They were chosen
using cluster quota random sampling. The instrument used to collect
data was questionnaires and behavior observation while the data
analysis techniques were statistic descriptive and multivariate
analyses of variance. The study reveals that most employees and
leaders who carry out self-evaluation exercises regularly end up being
more productive in their organizations and this reflects directly on
the performance of their respective organizations. The study
recommends that many leaders and followers should carry out selfevaluation exercises to improve their leadership skills and the
performance of their organizations.
