Back to the office negotiations

The Today Show this morning had a segment on how to manage a few things in your job as you return to the office.  The tips were helpful and here are some additional ideas on how to prepare for your annual/semi-annual performance review:

  • Explain your value to the job/department - During the year, take note of your activities that produce results and gather information to bring to the review about how you personally have affected change/made an impact/contributed to the team.
  • Don't hesitate to brag - A performance discussion should always include recognition that you received - internally and/or externally. Share emails from co-workers/management/customers, formal recognition (awards), and details about verbal discussions where people identified you as an exceptional performer.
  • Make an appointment - This meeting should be planned out - by you and the person you report to. The most effective performance reviews happen with both parties have time to collect information about actions and activities. The preparation is crucial to having a productive discussion that helps you move forward in achieving your career goals.
