Set employees up for success with the tools and know-how to actively partake in career and performance discussions:
Apply a visual timeline to map the growth you’ve experienced over time. Use the Career Pattern to see “your career story” and share it with your manager. The model will help facilitate an authentic conversation about your career journey beyond your resume and LinkedIn profile. Your manager will learn more about your motivations, interests, and times when you experienced the most growth. Where do you see yourself going? What experience will help you continue growing? How can your manager help?
Use the Employee Performance Continuum to understand performance as a combination of Work Results and Observed Behaviors/Actions. Reflect on your performance and how to accelerate your potential. Understand how your day-to-day actions and interactions connect with your organization’s values. The model will facilitate a big-picture conversation about the next stage in your development. Where do you see yourself? Where does your manager see you? What will help you make even more progress?
Learn how to ask for feedback that leads to information that helps increase your sense of confidence and certainty about your performance and near-term priorities. Use a question-and-answer framework based on “relevant-to-you” topics and questions. Make it easy and comfortable for your manager and others to share their perspective about your accomplishments, strengths, and how to be even more effective moving ahead. Use the skills and tools in this workshop for soliciting ad-hoc feedback and use the 10-Minute Questions Conversation template to guide discussions with your manager.
“I have a better sense of how to ask the right question about my performance. I now know what effective questions look like, and have lots of examples to choose from.”
“HR has picked great questions for the tool (was on paper, now online with more questions to choose from). And I like the other 300 questions that are categorized by topic. Will never run out of things to talk about with my boss!”
“I feel a lot more connected with my manager with the 10-Minute check-ins. I’m used to being on the receiving end of performance reviews, not really a full participant in the conversation. After the first couple of conversations, I can say this is 1,000 times better than reviews!”
“I’ve learned that it’s pointless to wait for my manager to give me feedback. I now understand how to think about the feedback I want and formulate the right questions.”
“Excellent program because I’m walking away with some new tools to get constructive feedback on my own terms.”
“I started right when Covid hit and never got to go to the office. I’ve been remote this whole time, so missed the orientation for new hires and getting to know my peers and boss. The 10MinuteConversation has been a great way to connect with my boss and come up to speed. We’re doing it weekly.”
