I'd like to hear from you what approach you use when it comes to appraise the performance, motivation or engagement or project team members during the project life cycle.
Can a generalist approach be used for all projects or is it project dependent?
Please share your thoughts. Saving Changes...

General random gestures of praise, highlighting accomplishments, explicitly highlight value from proper planning and technical direction.
No formal method per se,. I like to be inclusive and transparent, with expectations set up front. Saving Changes...

Appraisals must be done against set objectives and criteria of performance must be set during objective setting. Goals sets must be SMART goals and overall performance & capacity of person must be evaluated based on goals. After proper assessment reward, promotions,increment , training needs etc can be defined.

The word 'appraisal' has multiple definitions and connotations, depending on context. Most large companies have formal appraisal mechanisms related to employee performance, many of which are ineffective for day-to-day project-related performance.
Since I am a consultant my focus is very narrow where project/program performance is concerned. It boils down to a very simple question: Does the performer deliver what's been agreed to on time?
This approach can encapsulate all the other factors (quality, cost) within the deliverable definition such that time becomes the only metric.
I use a new tool called RoboTasq to track deliverables and stakeholder performance so that I have a factual record I can use to address poor performance wither with the stakeholder directly or though an escalation process.
