Most managers don't watch how their team members think and process results, all they worry about is the outcome. The few who do notice, often make notes, collect them, and present them at the review meeting. This makes the review process inherently ineffective because employees resist it even before they step in the door.<BR/><BR/>My rule is: say nothing new and never surprise an employee during a review.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
