3 EMPLOYEE DRIVEN APPRAISALS BOOSTS ENGAGEMET Employees are a hugely untapped resource for organisations to boost engagement and productivity.

7 Performance appraisal programs and processes are designed with the intent to drive up performance, capture development needs, and identify high potential employees for future leadership roles. Most traditional programs and processes fall drastically short of achieving this for two key reasons: 1. Ineffective feedback conversations. 2. Disengaging appraisal processes. Performance Focus Model

8 "I say what they want to hear because nothing really happens. I used to get into it and make suggestions, ask for specific training, but nothing ever happened so I don't bother any more." "Look at this form. It's for a administration worker, I'm a technical specialist. Nothing on this form relates to me. What I am I suppose to do with this?" "We stopped doing annual reviews which was great because they were awful. The managers were meant to give us feedback regularly but that turned out to be lots of mini awful reviews... too often. I'd rather go back to one annual review. The managers around here don't really know how to coach and engage me. The managers need training in this." "I just want to do my job and be left alone. Why do I have to want to climb the ladder? If I do something wrong tell me, otherwise leave me be."

9 "I had one member of my team who would schedule appointments when we were suppose to have the performance meeting. She dodged me all the time. I wasted so much time chasing." "The paperwork is so time consuming. I don't know what happens to the information once I submit it. I'm told it is part of determining the annual development plan for the organisation but I rarely see anything on that plan from what my team asks for, or for what I ask for!" "I dread these meetings. Sometimes the development part of the conversation is like trying to get blood from a stone. It's ridiculous because we both know the budget and time are early there even if a program is offered. And don't get me started on the difficult conversations..." "When we dropped the annual reviews I was relieved but we weren't given any direction, training or support for the 'in the moment' feedback."

10 WOULD THIS WORK FOR YOU? Your employees contribute more to growing the business through direct development, stepping up and speaking up. Your employee turn over rate reduces and staff morale / satisfaction increases. Your succession planning is more effective leading to vacated roles being filled faster with existing employees already prepared to take the new challenge. Your company, business or practice reputation improves leading to increased competitive advantage and attracting high calibre employees and clients. Performance appraisal paperwork submitted, fully completed, on time.

11 While there are many advantages to flipping your feedback process this program has five main objectives: OUTCOMES OF FEEDBACK 1 Improved performance across the organisation 2 Decreased turnover 3 A more productive, skilled and loyal workforce 4 More cost effective, informative and engaging performance appraisal process 5 Increased trust, confidence and openness between managers and employees

12 EFFECTIVE FEEDBACK CONVERSATIONS Whether giving or receiving, be it praise or corrective feedback, it needs to fully engage both parties, address the matter, then find and agree the way forward.

13 PERFORMANCE REVIEWS REDEFINED Create a culture of engaged, high performing employees supported by a performance process that is driven from the ground up.
