The performance review kit includes all the materials you need to run the employee assessments smoothly.
Employees' performance assessment is crucial for the solid growth of modern businesses as it reflects and improves job performance. However, the review process could be daunting and meaningless, if managers and team members are not fully prepared for the occasion.
The performance review kit is a curated file of all our ready-made templates that support the process. It provides emails templates, assessment forms, and self-assessment guides you and your team will need to nail the review session.
To better facilitate the process, HRs need to ensure clear communication on the performance review process. That will include: Who will involve, and what are their responsibilities? What are the steps? And the timeline? Plus, it would be best to have reminders upon the deadlines as someone is bound to miss them.
As manager and reviewer, you need to think upfront about the aspects you would like to assess the team members on. The performance review forms template in the kit could really help you nail down this. Moreover, to 'host' the assessment meetings effectively, here are +200 phrases to smoothly guide the flow of such meetings.
And as employees, aside from preparing what you are going to show your bosses, make the review meeting a two-way discussion by preparing questions to ask your managers. These questions will get you insights into what is truly expected of you, and assist you in developing goals for the next period.
