Your Ultimate Guide To Hosting a Productive Employee Performance Review Remotely

Few people tend to look forward to annual employee performance reviews. The idea of them can feel uncomfortable for managers and employees alike. 

They’re conversations that tend to be forced or awkward, but nonetheless provide important value for the employees, managers, and the company itself.

Performance reviews are important communication tools that measure job performance, identify needs for employee training and development, and provide both employees and managers with important feedback. 

This is also an important tool as it helps remind employees of what managers expect from them and produces improved work performance along with opportunity for growth within the company.
