Ensuring Employee Performance Review Compliance with Indian Digital Signature Laws

How to eSign a document: digital signature lawfulness for Employee Performance Review in India

hi everyone welcome to Career talk people desperately wait for entire one year to have that one-on-one discussion with their manager at the time of annual appraisal and they think that you know in that discussion they will say something or do something or Express something which will give them a very good rating and eventually a very good salary hike or promotion but honestly even before you walk into that room for that one-on-one discussion with your manager your manager nine out of ten times has already figured out what rating he's going to give you foreign [Laughter] so irrespective of what discussion you have in that particular room how boldly you put your points forward there is already a rating in his mind or her mind even before you walk into that room for that one-on-one discussion and why I am saying this is because you work with this manager or with this team lead for the entire year right when you work over the entire year there are a lot of transactions that happen where you do some good work or not so good work where you get some very good feedback or not so good feedback so what happens is when all these things are happening there is already a perception being made in his mind that how you are performing whether good or whether bad or whether average and at the time of annual appraisals managers have to segregate their team into three categories mostly into three one is the really good performers second is the average performance and third is the not so good performers and majority of the people fall in the average bucket okay and when I say average it is not bad it is actually good but they are not very good as compared to the A class people right so managers over a period of time observe you when you work with them and they have already built their thought process that okay these are my a performers and these are my C performers okay so these two categories are very clear in their mind and the rest of them by default fall into the B category okay this is how in my view it works in the mind of the managers and then there is something called as kras right where you have some specific targets some realistic number based targets where if you meet that number then you get 100 score if you don't meet that number then you don't get any score right and then there are subjective carries wherein a lot of it depends on subjectivity there is no objectivity okay it is all based on feedback perception and whatnot so in a nutshell what I'm trying to tell you is don't wait for the last day to have that conversation with your manager and then ask for a promotion or ask for a salary hike or prove what great work you have done or prove what potential you have or Express what potential you have for the next level role Etc you have to do it constantly on an ongoing basis throughout the year you have to find out ways and means of communicating your thought process with your manager so that they know where you're coming from and what to expect in that one-on-one discussion okay in one-on-one discussion you can't really change anything whatever you have done in the last year right so don't get into an argument mode don't get into a mode where you will prove a lot of things honestly if you are needing 30 minutes or 45 minutes at the end of the year to express what you have done then you have really not done a good job of communicating throughout the year honestly it should just take 10 to 15 minutes to actually go through the ratings and agree on a certain things where you have done a great job and a certain set of things where you need to improve it is that simple because at the end of the day you need to also understand that managers are also human beings so they are also very much calculative okay when that discussion is about to happen and whatever I'm telling you is actually applicable for people who have spent considerable time working with a particular manager manager or in a given project for a you know longer duration if you are new to the company or if you are new to the department or the project then there is of course no perception built you have to prove everything there may be feedback taken from other managers where you have worked earlier but whatever I told you is applicable in scenarios where you have worked with somebody for a stretch okay for a considerable amount of time so as I said because managers have a lot of experience talking to people over the years when they talk to multiple people they really sharpen their skills about how to talk and what to expect so they already know when you're working in the room what to expect but you really don't know that they've already made up their mind okay so that is the message I wanted to pass in this video
