Instructions

Your Performance Review is an opportunity to discuss accomplishments, progress on goals, overall performance, individual and team contributions, professional development and areas for growth. The written summary supports communication and useful feedback that we can continue to build on in the months and years to come.

The Employee saves a copy of this form, completes the form, and then sends it to their Manager. The Manager provides written feedback in each section. The Manager will then send it to their next tier Manager/VP for comments, suggestions and approval. Manager and Employee will then schedule a conversation to review the written feedback together.

This performance review covers three topical areas:

Tips

  • Gather your inputs in advance (ex – goals)
  • No goals (yes, this does happen). Evaluate the most important activities that took place over the course of the year
  • Write short, concise statements – we aren¡¯t looking for a ¡°book¡±
  • Be thoughtful, but don¡¯t over think

 

Your 1:1 Discussion

  • This may replace a normally scheduled 1:1 meeting
  • Typically will last between 45 – 90 minutes
  • This is intended to be a discussion – with sharing of perspectives
  • Some managers may provide the written document in advance; others will provide it in or after the meeting
  • Be prepared and ready for the discussion
