Abstract
Appraisal has been in place for 8 years and is a contractual requirement for career grade doctors. It will become central to the process of revalidation laid down by the GMC. It is principally a formative process although recently summative elements have been included. The enhanced appraisal processes for revalidation includes multi-source feedback. Evidence to date from multi-source feedback shows that communication, team working, leadership and management are areas in need of improvement. However, clinical skills, compassion and teaching are rated highly. A successful appraisal requires a constructive approach from both parties and thorough preparation. The outcome should be an achievable personal development plan. If approached positively an appraisal will produce benefits for both the individual and organisation.
