The Appraisal Process
What you can expect in the weeks ahead
A Message from Fabiola Elizalde
Director of Talent, Learning & HR Services
Performance Appraisals are an opportune time for managers to engage with their staff to acknowledge and celebrate accomplishments; speak to areas of growth and development; establish clear expectations and goals; as well as identify professional development opportunities that will enhance the skills and knowledge of an employee. Employees will do their best work when they feel empowered and engaged. Remember, for this process to be effective, managers must engage their staff throughout the review cycle.
Employees, you must feel empowered to own your career and seek opportunities for development and growth. Be accountable for discussing your career aspirations with your manager. This process is a partnership between a manager and employee.
