| Abstract | In today’s modern and complex organizations, multitasking has become an increasingly occurred phenomenon and is considered as one of the key determinants in performance appraisals. With the advent of technological advances, changing organizational structures, and shrinking timelines, multitasking is being viewed as an important requirement. In modern work environments, to do more than one task at a time and have deliverables overlapping on one another requires an employee to multi-task and juggle between two tasks at one time. The argument leads to the question that does the attainment of several tasks overlapping has an impact on the effectiveness of the task and whether multitasking is something an employee will comfortable with to achieve better-perceived performance or not. Perceived job performance and successful completion of work have been viewed as an employee’s ability to multitask whereas there have been researching studies that have argued the negative social implication of employees multitasking. Technology, timelines, characteristics, and attributes required for certain positions and designations keep multitasking as one of the key elements while also giving the core competencies and skills required for multitasking. |
