How to use it

  2. Add ratings and comments as the manager.
  3. Discuss it together and agree the new goals.
  4. Both sign and keep a copy.

FAQ

Should the employee see the ratings before the meeting?

Many teams share the draft a day ahead so the meeting is a discussion, not a surprise.

Can I change the competencies?

Yes. Replace them with the skills that matter for the role.

Does signing mean the employee agrees?

No. Signing confirms the review took place; there is space for the employee’s own comments.
