Avoiding Common Performance Review Mistakes
Performance reviews have a significant impact on an employee's morale and career trajectory. However, they are often underutilized and poorly executed. Managers make several common mistakes, such as not spending enough time preparing, relying too much on peer feedback, failing to provide substantive feedback, having one-sided conversations, lacking a follow-up plan, or neglecting performance reviews altogether. By addressing these errors, managers can enhance performance, align expectations, and accelerate their report's career.
