Marcus coaches Dion to be well prepared for an appraisal with Carol.
Casey and Tammy are nervous about their performance reviews, especially after Tammy’s last encounter with Carol. Knowing that Dion is about to undergo the same, Marcus offers him some tips about knowing your goals, where you’ve progressed, and how you wish to move forward. Sam stresses the importance that being proactive communicates to a manager that a person is self-motivated. Having a brag list is beneficial: you can demonstrate what you’ve accomplished, including awards and various ways you monetize your value to the company. Serena adds that people going into performance appraisals should also have a good sense of where they need to improve. Carol stresses the importance of not being defensive, and the need to appreciate that people are making time to help you improve.
