9 Questions To Ask In Every Performance Review

Also called ‘performance appraisals’ or ‘performance evaluations’, a performance review is a formal assessment that evaluates your employees’ work performance, identifies strengths and weaknesses, offers feedback and sets goals for future performance. 

Here are nine must-ask, open-ended questions, for every performance review:

  • How do you feel about the work you’re doing?
  • How would you describe your contribution to the business?
  • What do you enjoy most about your job and what challenges do you face?
  • Do you feel valued and appreciated by your manager and colleagues? Please explain.
  • Please describe what support, resources, and opportunities you need to grow and develop in your role, and whether you feel these are currently and sufficiently accessible.
  • How does your job align with your personal and professional goals?
  • Please describe your current work/life balance.
  • What would you change about your job or the organisation to make it an even better place to work?
  • Are you considering any other job opportunities or considering leaving the organisation?

In order to keep employees feeling positive and motivated, avoid performance reviews that feel punitive; instead, ensure they are achievement-focused, accurate, fair and actively encourage personal and professional development. To further inspire your employees, make sure your performance reviews are just one part of an ongoing conversation between staff and management, which encourages ongoing coaching and feedback.
