Episode 014: Performance Management — Self-Assessment for Leaders

Performance Management
Written By Cindy Dockendorff
 

Key Takeaways:

  • Leaders need to take the time to self-assess because they people with whom they’re working aren’t always comfortable providing them with feedback.

  • Self-assessment does take time but it can help leaders avoid or reduce the impact of issues in the future, saving time in the long run.

  • Journalling is a great method of self-assessment because it gets things out of your head and onto paper where you can more easily evaluate things from a distance.

  • Personality and skills assessments are often useful tools to help us see our blind spots or consider ourselves from new angles.
