If annual reviews are the only time when feedback is given, that's a problem. But it's certainly better than nothing. -John Allain

9Y Approach

Still, the performance review / career preview is important. For us, we want to follow this principle:

Connect a person's past – gaining a detailed understanding of who they are and what motivates them at work through their life story – with their future – the wildest dreams they have for themselves at the pinnacle of their career.

Collect answers from the team members the employee has been working with over the past couple of months via this form https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfDnmh5HH0LMH86mcU9KxA0doQZpcbF2nWp6qUG4VQ6EUoC0A/viewform?usp=sf_link

Prepare your thoughts, as a Team Lead or School Lead on the following areas.
Your colleague will also prepare for the areas according to Performance Review / Career Preview - Employees

In the meeting itself, start with the observations from everyone and discuss them. Then move on to step 2 and 3.
