Ask Nancye about Performance Reviews

Performance Reviews are one of the most dreaded management responsibilities for new supervisors and are often uncomfortable for seasoned managers.  There is no template for a review because each employee is unique.  Using a standardized form is helpful in completing the paperwork but the interview can be unpredictable.  This is not a legal advisory on performance reviews.  It is a conversation with Nancye Combs, a Management Consultant, who has many years of practical experience creating and implementing performance management systems.  This management advisory was designed to help you reduce anxiety, conduct effective performance reviews, and master the process.
