When you are a new manager or leader, it is important that you learn how to conduct a performance review with your staff. Performance reviews, or employee reviews, are an effective way to evaluate the performance of your staff. You need to know this to identify gaps in their skills and offer training or support to help them improve. This is also a good opportunity for you to hear directly from the employee about their motivations, career aspirations and goals.

Performance reviews are an essential part of your job as a manager and leader. For you to conduct them well and have a great performance review (that your employees will love), you need to know the basics and learn the proven structure for conducting job performance reviews.

In this video, I reveal how to prepare for, conduct, and follow up after a performance review. Don't go into performance review without any plan or preparation. This is a recipe for disaster! You need to be structured in your approach and this video will help you do that.

Let’s strengthen your leadership and management skills and learn how to conduct a great performance review!
