For ten years I have issued an annual reminder to leaders regarding performance feedback and relationship-building.<\/strong> The reminder always shows up in December or January.<\/p>\n

You know what? That’s too late!<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you are not already holding monthly (or more frequent) performance conversations with your team members, there’s no time like now to change your habits.<\/strong> If you want to enter the new year with more effective leadership habits, start right now.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Have a one-on-one session with at least half the people on your team each week between now and 12-29.<\/strong> By end of year you’ll have started to create some new momentum around dialogue and learning.<\/li>\n
  2. Sit down for five minutes (per person on your team) and capture notes on performance<\/strong> – what you’ve seen them do well year-to-date, and where you recommend they focus to get even better.<\/li>\n
  3. Share your notes with each person, and invite them to add anything you’ve missed.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  4. Have a short conversation about what else they need\/want to accomplish by year end.<\/strong> (With five weeks left in 2012, there’s still time to deliver – but if you wait until mid-January to talk about it, the deadlines will have passed….)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Remember, Leadership is not about a title:<\/span> Anyone can be a leader who makes it a priority to nurture relationships and help others grow and develop.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
