Pulakos’s comprehensive system begins with specifying organizational objectives and then moves down through each level. The primary audience is not psychologists so much as human resources staff and the managers who must be responsible for developing, implementing, and defending a performance management system. It should be invaluable to those who are developing a system and overseeing training on its use. For the student audience, it will provide a practical perspective that is often missing from their training.\" (\u003ci\u003ePsycCritiques\u003c\/i\u003e, October 2009)  \u003cb\u003eElaine D.Pulakos\u003c\/b\u003e, Ph.D.Chief Operating Officer of Personnel Decisions Research Institutes, is a Past President of the Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology, a Fellow of APA and SIOP, and a recognized contributor to the field of industrial and organizational psychology in the areas of staffing and performance management, having published numerous articles, chapters, and books on these topics.  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries Editor\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eSteven G.
