How to give a performance review your team won't dread

How to run performance reviews your team doesn't dread: a simple performance review conversation, a one-page self-assessment, and feedback with zero surprises. Performance reviews fill employees with stress because they feel like one moment that could decide a career, and leaders dread them too. In this episode, Lia breaks down how to structure the review so your team member leaves with a plan they own, whether your company runs a heavy review cycle or you've never run a review at all.

In this episode you will learn:

The two things every performance review covers: looking back and looking ahead

How long a performance review meeting should be

How to set up a one-page employee self-assessment, and what to ask for in it

What a team member's self-reflection tells you about their future on your team

How to give specific feedback in a review that reinforces what you've already discussed

Why your team member should own the follow-ups, and why skipping reviews costs you your best people
