You are always so incredibly detailed in every single post. I don't think anyone has broken down performance reviews in this way before. At least I've not seen it! You are right, no one cares more about your career than you. If you have a manager who can't be bothered to deep dive into your yearly, then it's even more important to consider all the different types of documentation you mentioned. They are very comprehensive. On the other side of the coin - how often do we downgrade what we have done? Yes. So many do. Great article (again) Wendy!
Thanks Maria. People don't understand the importance of Performance Reviews, especially if their manager doesn't take them seriously and rushes through them. This backfires when a new manager comes along who takes past grades seriously and does a deep dive into the team's reviews.
And yes, so many people downgrade their own work because to them, it's easy.
Great summary of how to take control of your performance review, Wendy! It is essential that employees do what you shared because as you said, it’s no one’s job but theirs!!
Thanks Kathy. Taking control of reviews is essential to taking control of your career. Also it's a great way to assess what you've achieved and where you need development.
