Reflect, celebrate & prepare for performance season
The new year is a great time to reflect on your accomplishments, growth and challenges over the past year. With performance season just around the corner, this is more than just a routine task — it’s about summarizing your year, celebrating your achievements and formalizing your contributions. Use the questions below to help you get started:
- What goals did you achieve or progress toward?
- What challenges did you overcome and how did you grow from them?
- What skills or knowledge did you gain that you’re proud of?
Reflecting now will make writing your self-assessment easier in the months ahead and help you clearly showcase your contributions during the performance review process.
