This study examines the performance appraisal of cadres within government institutions, highlighting its significance in enhancing governance capacity and administrative effectiveness. It analyzes key challenges in current appraisal practices and proposes pathways for improvement. The research focuses on the construction of multidimensional evaluation indicators, the integration of performance appraisal with cadre development, and the optimization of appraisal mechanisms. Additionally, it underscores the potential of big data technologies and collaborative evaluation models in improving assessment accuracy and fairness. Based on the analysis, the study advances policy recommendations aimed at establishing a more scientific, systematic, and effective cadre performance appraisal system.
