ACE Your Performance Review

Got objectives you will be reviewed against? Then get an implementation plan!

This couldn’t be more important if you have agreed objectives with your manager that your performance will be measured against, and your bonus depends upon.

Leaving the delivery of your objectives to ad-hoc opportunities or done in stolen time is a slippery-slope to failure. Believe me, I have been there.

When I first started out in my career, I didn’t really understand this. I thought objectives were something above and beyond my ‘day job’, so I did my day job without looking for opportunities to deliver my objectives. So it’s no surprise that my objectives were delivered in a rush and to poor quality towards the end of my review period – in some cases just a day or two before my appraisal.

Of course, I received low marks, as a review period isn’t just the hour or so I spent with my manager during my appraisal – it’s the whole period (12  months).

This is why having a plan is very important. Achieving objectives during your performance review period is a mater of achievement through the WHOLE period. And a plan is what guides your work, and sets deadlines in which you will achieve the activities.

You and your manager will track your plan and measure the results against target. If you have been set an objective to reduce error rates on your website by 50% throughout the year, for example, then you could build an implementation plan to deliver technical changes and measure their results over the year – e.g. reduced by 10% first by Q1, 25% by Q2, 40% by Q3 and 50% by Q4.

The best way to construct your implementation plan is to break up your objectives into sub-objectives, and set these as goals for the current period (e.g. current quarter). Setting smaller, more manageable goals not only delivers value through your review period, it also allows you to make course corrections if progress isn’t at the desired rate, and it also increases your confidence.

Increased confidence is always a good thing.
