What you’ll learn to do: Discuss the appraisal process
Given the stakes—that is, the upside potential of an engaged workforce—performance management is a critical organizational competency. As former Airbnb product lead Lenny Rachitsky phrases it, “done well, performance reviews improve performance, align expectations and accelerate your report’s career.
