Questions to Ask When You’re Conducting a Performance Review as a Leader

When you're conducting a performance review as a leader, there are certain questions you should ask. You should never dive into a performance review (or an annual appraisal) without preparing questions in advance. This will lead to you ask vague questions or ones that won't be helpful for you at all.
The best questions to ask when you're conducting a performance review are ones that will help you track your employee's progress since the last performance review as well as understand their current performance, areas for improvement, and career goals. When you have looked at all these angles, you will have a much better understanding of your employee's true performance at work and you will be able to evaluate them better.
In this video, you will learn exactly what questions to ask in a performance review (from a leader or manager's perspective). I've broken it down into five broad areas you need to cover as a leader and have given you sample questions for each area. By the end of this video, you will know what questions leaders should ask in a performance review.

If you want advice on how to conduct a performance review, watch this video czcams.com/video/ADlzje4l1BM/video.html

[@kararonin]

Performance reviews can be daunting to conduct. Did these questions help you?

[@mwanidasakala1351]

I thought i was the only one

[@TouficEid]

I believe Performance Reviews are golden opportunities for honest, empathetic, and constructive feedback. It has to be a joint venture in which Employee and Line Manager are equally responsible.
The questions you suggested are awesome.
Thanks Kara.

[@kararonin]

I'm so glad they're helpful for you!

[@tahirtahirzade5051]

Hi Kara,
It has been a long time since I started watching your videos on CZcams, especially the performance review ones. Your tips have taught me many things, and as an intern student, they have motivated me to conduct a performance review with my manager. They were pleasantly surprised that I took the initiative and organized the meeting instead of them. It has been a while since I have been able to progress in my career, and no one has provided me with specific feedback.
The performance review went really well, and I applied your advice. I feel better and more motivated to work and continue in this manner.
Thank you very much once again for your videos, and please continue creating content like that. Greetings from France

[@kararonin]

Thank you so much for your comment Tahir! I'm so glad that the advice I provide is helpful. It's fantastic you took initiative to conduct a performance review with your manager and that they were impressed. This is wonderful to hear!

[@askumarhse]

I’m glad that all items mentioned are already covered in my organisation performance review form !

[@kararonin]

That's fantastic! You're already on point then.

[@ashisbasak1175]

Valuable information.
Lastly the follow up and sit with the person to give regular feedback is very important

[@kararonin]

Definitely true! Great addition.

[@panneer5292]

Thank you for watching!

Excellent vdo on performance bt.as a professional maam in my opinion the HR department nd almost all HR staff barring one or two lack execution so it effects rt.perfomance in a clear cut language related to skill.They hv.not been able to plan, monitor nd implement any systems satisfactorily.They need to develop the skill nd these can b assessed through interviews with HR staff as well as the line managers.Examination of the systems implemented in the past also gives insight for assessment of performance management in true sense nd also inculticate execution skills in brief though it is a vast field nd so many factors are involved related to the performance skills in my opinion on HR.The sample qs.shud b vry.practical nd self implementation of the ideas of the recruiter to assess Definitely if these things are taken into the consideration best output nd goals could be achieved for OD nd OB nd good as a overall Perspective for individual nd for Organization's too.vry.inspiring lecture nd useful too.
