Evaluation of Sean Busby’ Article ‘The Halo Effect”
The work completed by Sean Busby presents a neat, comprehensive summary of what the Halo Effect is, and what is the importance of this psychological effect on the business environment. Evidently, the author correctly understood the purports of the articles he cited in his work, and his analytical review has a number of strong features.
Firstly, the work of Sean remarkably identifies the most important points of the analyzed research on the point. He appropriately emphasizes that wrongly formulated psychological convictions and presumptions about a particular person may make an auditor’s opinion biased, therefore tarnishing potential career opportunities of a person, for some illogical reason disliked by the auditor. In addition, Sean correctly puts into spotlight the fact that the core of Halo Phenomenon is that very often there are no legitimate grounds for an auditor to dislike an employee, yet some sort of professional repugnance takes place.
Secondly, the work of Sean is well-structured. The contents of the work are effectively divided into several paragraphs, each bearing its unique message. The reader can therefore easily distinguish between what the author intended to communicate in each section of his work.
In the meantime, the analysis of Sean’s work contains several mistakes. Firstly, the flow of sentences is not completely cohesive and coherent. In other words, the author jumps from one subject to another. Providing some kind of conjunction between them appears to be reasonable here. Secondly, his analysis has some professional terminology, making its understanding significantly more complicated for those, who don’t speak English as their first language. Lastly, there are some insignificant spelling and grammar mistakes in his work. Although they are not critical to its message, such errors are not tolerable in professional business or academic writing.
