The forced distribution method is both a widely used and highly controversial method of performance appraisal   How fair would you say this method is to employees being ranked?  Why/Why not?  Defend your answer. As an HR professional within an organization, would you recommend the use of forced rankings?  Why/Why not?  Again, defend your answer.   Suppose for a moment that this practice was used in assigning your course grade and that your grade was based on your relative performance to your classmates.  For example, suppose your final score for the course was an 80 (which would traditionally be an B- or thereabout). Instead, you learn your 80 was the lowest grade in the course of 100 students and that based on your relative performance you have failed (F) the course.  How would you feel?  What would you say to your professor?
