Abstract

A survey questionnaire was administered to a sample of (N= 60) academic staff in two colleges of Education in Botswana to explore their perceptions, attitudes and level of satisfaction regarding the use of the Performance Management System (PMS) as an appraisal tool. Findings of the study revealed that HODs were more satisfied with PMS implementation than lecturers.  Hierarchical regression analysis was computed to examine the extent to which academic staff perception towards PMS, their attitudes towards PMS and their understanding of PMS predicts their level of satisfaction with the use of PMS. Findings showed that academic staff perception towards PMS, their attitudes towards PMS and their understanding of PMS predicted staff’s satisfaction with PMS to a statistically significant degree. Policy and practical implications are discussed.
