Nailing Your Formal Performance Review

Most leaders DREAD the formal performance review; because they don’t prepare and they don’t know what to expect. Today I go deep on how to control the dialogue, so that your review becomes a career accelerator, rather than a spirited defense of your failings.Let’s face it: you know your performance hasn’t been perfect, so it’s easy to agonise over how your boss might evaluate you.This makes it tempting to just throw yourself at your boss’s mercy, and plead for leniency, hoping the good will outweigh the not-so-good.But if you manage this conversation well, it will reinforce your value, and shape how the organisation sees your future. In this episode, I give you a practical framework for nailing your formal review. From KPIs to performance standards, I show you how to read the room before you walk in, and how to build a case to support your performance evaluation. I also show you how to take advantage of an opportunity that almost everyone leaves on the table.Links mentioned in this episode:No Bullsh!t Leadership episodes:No Bullsh!t LeadershipWikipedia link:The Peter PrincipleLBT link:Leadership Beyond the Theory————————Is your team performing at the standard it should be?✨ Join Marty and Em for The Mid-Year Leadership Reset — a free 2-hour live workshop to stop the drift before the second half of the year gets away from you.You'll walk away with three practical frameworks to reset your standard, rebuild accountability, and build a team that doesn't need you for everything.Thursday 11 June · 10am–12pm AEST · FreeSECURE YOUR FREE SPOT HERE————————You can connect with me at:Website: https://www.yourceomentor.comFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/yourceomentorInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/yourceomentorLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/martin-moore-075b001/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@YourCEOMentor————————Our mission here at Your CEO Mentor is to improve the quality of leaders, globally. ✨ If you’ve finished Leadership Beyond the Theory but still find yourself needing a sounding board for the real leadership challenges, applications are now open for the next intake of The No Bullsh!t Leaders Club.Join Marty, Em, and 90+ high calibre leaders for straight answers, tough conversations, and ongoing support to help you lead at a higher standard: leadershipbeyondthetheory.com/nblc Hosted on Acast.
