9、al management: whether to differentiate the retirement age between men and women I do think its reasonable to differentiate the retirement age between men and women. Female should retire earlier. The deciding factor on the age issue, according to me, is the physical condition of a person. It is obvi

10、ous that the situation of men and women differs a lot when considering age and aging problems. Besides. we cannot deny that women generally take more household and children -care responsibilities, which means that they are under more pressure.

So when setting a future performance goal, it will be more acceptable and fair for both manager and the sales representatives to establish it jointly. A: In fact, jobs are multifacete

19、d and different eyes see different aspects. To make evaluation effective and accurate, wed better get input from as various angles as possible, such as supervisors, peers, customers and the like.
