Communication Tips for Performance Reviews: What to Say in Your Performance Review

In this video, I talk about communication tips for performance reviews. Specifically, I help you get clear on what to say in your next performance review so you can impress your boss! Many people don't prepare for their performance review. They leave the meeting up to chance and hope their boss will automatically recognise their hard work and achievements. But this doesn't always happen.

You have to bring your achievements and success to the performance review and help your boss see them. I first talk about why performance reviews are important, and then I delve into five things you need to talk about in your performance review. There are actionable steps and example sentences included in this video. Make sure you take notes!

P.C.O.R Method explained in more detail:

P: What was the project?
C: What challenges did you face?
O: How did you overcome those challenges?
R: What were the results you generated?

This is a great method to use when talking about your achievements in a performance review. Here is an example of how to use it,

"When I was organising the webinar in September to train our new graduate recruits, I struggled to be concise on my powerpoint slides. Some of the feedback I got was that there was too much to read on the slides. So when I conducted this webinar a second time in December, I removed most of the text from the powerpoint slides. I also used images and graphs to make it more engaging. The feedback I received after the second webinar was much more positive. People said they learned a lot about the company".

Do you see how I used the P.C.O.R method in the above example?

The problem that I have is that everything I do, I don't take them as accomplishment. I have a bad habit of not wanting recognition because for me, I'm there to do my job and do it to the best of my ability. Lol

Say nothing, because no matter what you say changes nothing.

Who would put negative comments on their employee' permanent record? Even with low rating, only positive comments must be put in writing. Anyone put any nasty comments, they should bot be in leadership role, total idiot

[Stark]

Is it just me or does this all seem made-up to anyone else?

[TamimHasan-nsjr]

Why talking so fast? Do you think it is a good communication?
