Behavior analysts occupy a unique position when it comes to employee performance evaluation: they have direct professional training in measurement, contingency design, and behavior change — the exact competencies that effective performance management requires. Yet many BCBAs who lead clinical teams implement performance evaluation systems that rely on subjective ratings, infrequent review cycles, and vague performance criteria that bear little resemblance to the behavioral precision they apply to client programming.

However, the reality is many organizations struggle with developing, implementing, monitoring, and updating these systems for their employees. Successful performance evaluations require significant amounts of knowledge, coordination, and time across members of the organization. We will review a few different methods for evaluation of behavior technicians, BCBA's, and director-level staff followed by a group discussion of successes, challenges, and solutions.
