Self and supervisor ratings of performance: Evidence from an individualistic culture

Abstract

This paper aims at exploring the relationship between self‐rated performance and immediate‐supervisor rated performance in the United Arab Emirates. A sample of 1,285 participants‐ employees and managers‐ were surveyed using self‐administered questionnaire. The results revealed a clear gap between employees’ perceptions of their performance and their managers’ perceptions. The implications of the results for both managers and researchers are also discussed in the paper.
