Evaluations are conducted for accreditation purposes and as part of scientific management which includes job analysis, description, and evaluation. However, evaluations are rarely set up to actually evaluate what is intended such as a manager's ability to manage personnel. Common uses of performance evaluations include determining promotions, pay, providing feedback and training, discipline, and communicating an organization's quality and mission.
