Measuring the professional performance of others is not easy. To be honest, as a manager, I have realized this the hard way. It is impossible for someone to look at every single one of his employees, trust me, I should know. Well, while it is hard to keep track of their performance, there are still ways to get a rough idea about it. I understand that people have difficulties with it, but it gets easier as time goes by, I promise.
