14. Areas of improvement
Type: Subjective
This review question gives a formal opportunity to both the employee & the organization to express all that can be better about the other. These may be related to job performance, skills, culture, behavior, management or even the air-conditioning!
Review Methods
Starting off, the employee & manager can summarize the key areas of improvement identified across all the key aspects of employee performance listed above and agree on the plan to improve moving forward.
Also, the employee can share his/her opinions on the key hygiene factors that can be bettered by the organization to best enable the employee to perform in the future. Such feedback should be fed back to Management as they plan their Employee satisfaction strategies.
Is this a popular practice?
Yes but sometimes such feedback tends to get lost in the din of day to day business priorities.
Keep in mind
Like children follow parents, employees follow the organizational pattern on what’s important or not. So, the organization should lead the way for such feedback to be critically evaluated for implementation. Only then employees can be expected to reciprocate.
