    Item
    A performance appraisal tool for Seventh-day Adventist church pastors in Côte d'Ivoire Conference
    (Adventist University of Africa, School of Postgraduate Studies, 2018-04) Amon, Boa Innocent
    The purpose of this study was to create a performance appraisal tool that will allow an efficient performance management of Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) pastors within the conference of Côte d’Ivoire. The basis for such a tool was the standards of performance set by the church policy as well as the level of expectations of the recipients of the pastoral ministry, i.e. church members, and the extent to which the expectations are being met. A questionnaire was administered to that effect. The analysis of the data revealed that the church members felt that the pastors were, in general, meeting their expectations. However, for two critical pastoral functions, there is a big gap between expectations and fulfillment of those expectations: training and visitations. The findings also indicated a need for the performance appraisal tool to be developed using two sections separately. The first section is a behaviorally anchored rating scales, where the various aspects of the pastoral duties are rated. The second section is a report of the outcomes, expressed in numbers, of visitations, training, and evangelism.
