Archive for " December, 2011 "

The end of the year is the time to reflect on the year that was and look forward to a new year. Thus it is a time of mixed feelings. What if you got bad performance review?  You’re shaken, angry, and full of adrenaline—a natural response to a less than stellar review of your work.

But drop those fists: a bad performance review doesn’t have to be a disaster. It all depends on how you respond. And handling it well requires a cool head, clear mind, and these 4 steps to recovery.
1. Clarify

Fight the impulse to blindly defend yourself and sling blame—and stay off of Facebook. Instead, aim to clarify the feedback you’ve heard without getting defensive.

Consider the possibility that the criticism is less severe than it feels. Take a moment and replay the conversation in your head. Did you ignore a good chunk of positive feedback and get stuck on one or two suggestions for improvement? Are you just used to hearing critiques in a different communication style? Weigh these factors first before assuming you’ve been poorly reviewed.

As for any obviously negative feedback you received, make it your new mission to get as much information as possible–keeping in mind that the goal is to understand the issue and improve, not to be testy.

2. Re-review
After you’ve had time to gather your thoughts, set up a second review session with your supervisor. This will help to ensure that you’re prioritizing correctly, while demonstrating that you’re proactive and flexible. It also starts a feedback loop that, if maintained, can keep you from getting ambushed next year.
During the conversation, take notes so that you only have to hear these things once, and ask for specific examples (such as an instance when you lacked teamwork skills).
Read your takeaways back to your reviewer—are you grasping the main issues? If not, try asking what you could have done differently to prevent the issues; hearing the information in terms of action points may help you understand how to progress in the future.
If you feel you’re being unfairly assessed, pull together your records and see if you have evidence to the contrary. (This generally only works with something specific, like if you’ve been accused of missing days or coming in late and you can prove otherwise, or have documented excuses). If you’ve got the goods, bring them to the re-review–e-mail printouts, a doctor’s note, or your boss’ go ahead on something. Again, it’s best not to not appear defensive or aggressive—diplomacy is the key to getting your case heard.

3. Write a rebuttal
If you feel that the poor evaluation contained less constructive criticism than personal attack (or suspect that an interpersonal issue with a supervisor or a company agenda is at the heart of the critique),it’s a good idea to have your version of the past year on record. Especially if you see legal proceedings on the horizon.
A rebuttal should not directly reference complaints issued about you, but rather read as a single page summary of the positive points of your year with the company. The more specific you can be, the better—”I worked hard” is much more easily dismissed than, “My team persuaded the Cohen account to switch from our consulting services to investment banking, which resulted in a Ksh 30,000 profit when it sold.”
Don’t be afraid to cite positive comments from clients or other coworkers that disputes feedback from your review. Then, submit the rebuttal to your boss or HR. It may not completely exonerate you, but it could help management reassess their overall perceptions of your work and value to the company.

4. Move on
Emotionally, that is. Unless you’ve clearly been issued your walking papers, there’s no need to run screaming from the office (or into the arms of a competitor).
Bad reviews can happen to good people, and receiving one doesn’t mean you’re doomed as an employee. There may even be positive takeaways, like the chance to assess whether you’re on the right career track, or a lesson in handling crappy management.
With that in mind, the best way to look at a poor review is not as a threat but an opportunity: whether that’s to improve, move on or chart a new course entirely is up to you.

This year is close to an end and a new one is about to begin. What can you resolve to do that will make 2012 a better year career wise and in your job search?

1. Make a specific plan
I’m not talking about making a wish list which, like New Year’s resolutions, will be forgotten by the third week of January. You want a plan that has specific goals for your job (what’s the best role for you next?)
and your income (exactly how much would you like to be making by the end of 2012?). Writing down your plans makes them concrete, and it’s more likely you will attain them.

2. SWOT yourself
Be honest with yourself. Review your strengths — like what you’ve got that can move you ahead; weaknesses — like those things you have or do that are holding you back; opportunities — things you can pursue at the company or in the industry; and threats — things that can derail you or sabotage your efforts to move ahead.

3. Update your CV
Smart careerists are always ready for the next opportunity. Taking time to review and modify your CV before you want to send it to someone makes it a better product. This is often your first introduction to a new employer or boss — so make sure it’s topnotch

4. Invest in your career
Most people forget they really have two jobs. The first is to do what you get paid for and do it better than others. The second is to do what’s required to ensure that your career isn’t left to someone’s wrong opinions that were made in your absence. Be in the office when your boss is. It gives you additional opportunity to let him or her get to know you for things other then the job you’re currently filling.

How To Set New Goals For 2012!

Posted by in Graduate Jobs in Kenya at December 30, 2011

This is the time of year when a lot of people sit down and look at setting goals and resolutions for the year ahead.

The aim of this post is to make this time as effective as possible by giving you three simple things to think about when setting your goals.

Here are my 3 M’s of effective goal-setting:

Your goals should be Meaningful – Effective goals are meaningful goals.  They are goals that give you
purpose and provide you with an incentive to take action.  They are ambitious and bold and provide you with a real challenge.  Achieving meaningful goals is a genuine achievement that you can take pride in.

If you want to have effective goals, make sure that they’re not wishy-washy, diluted by a lack of faith in your abilities.

Make sure that if you achieve them, you know that you’ve really done something of significance.

Your goals should be Measurable – There’s little point in having vague goals like, “I want to read more,” or I want to lose weight.”  You have to be able to measure your goals with specific targets within specific timeframes.

A lot of people are afraid of doing this as it adds an extra dimension of accountability to their goals, but that’s the point.  You want to have a number to aim towards and a target that you can genuinely celebrate reaching if you want your goals to be effective.

Your goals should be Manageable – When I use the word manageable, I mean two things:

   1. Your goals should be achievable.
   2. You should be the one in control of the action steps towards reaching them.

Your goals should be achievable, but don’t let this limit your ambition.  Don’t confuse impossible with untried, but don’t fall into the trap of setting such absurd goals that you give up before you even start.  If I was to aim to break the 100m world record in athletics, that would be ridiculous and I would soon give up.  However, if I was to aim to improve my personal best time by 0.2 of a second, that would be a manageable and more effective goal.

You should also be in control of the action that you take with your goals.  There’s no point in relying on elements that are out of your control, like the economy or the response of another person.  Effective goals are reliant on you and you alone for progress and have action steps that are dependant on your initiative.

These are my 3 M’s of effective goal-setting.  Make sure that your goals are meaningful, measurable and manageable and I’m certain that you’ll be able to achieve more in the year ahead.
