The performance evaluation method that is widely gaining favour for expatriates is 360-degree appraisal, which involves feedback from multiple sources, such as the expatriate's supervisor, peers, subordinates, and possibly even customers or suppliers. This method allows for a more comprehensive evaluation of the expatriate's performance, taking into account not only their technical skills but also their interpersonal skills, cultural adaptability, and overall contributions to the organization. Therefore, if ABC Company used 360-degree appraisal for Doug's performance evaluation while on assignment in Italy, it would be the best choice.
