- Wise Words - Webinar: Making the grade at our Annual Review meeting by fergus mellon
Like the Holidays, the Annual Review season comes around much too quickly and can leave us with little time to properly prepare. We race through the year, trying to stay on top of all our daily tasks, and before we know it, our annual review meeting is upon us!
Much like the post-holidays gloom of January, this meeting can leave us feeling drained and dissatisfied or at the very least apprehensive about our review meeting. If this sounds all too familiar, listen to this webinar about how to effectively prepare for and "ace" your performance review meeting.
This webinar covers:
Annual review preparation: set out what pre-meeting prep we should do.
How to get the most out of feedback (both strengths and areas for improvement).
How do deal with surprises. We may hear things in our annual reviews that surprise us, or that we do not like. It can be easy to react off the cuff, but we will cover ways of responding to this feedback that will help to keep your relationship with your manager intact.
Career management, promotions, and pay rises: how to ask for what you want from your manager.
