Dreaded Appraisal

The Dreaded Appraisal lets you sit in as three managers review three different employees, each an archetype of a 'problem' personality. Each illustrates a different challenge for managers and each presents an opportunity to turn negative attitudes into positive actions.

• First comes Shy Sharon, who has bottled up all her opinions and concerns. The manager helps Sharon to express herself in a positive manner and see the value of honest, open communication.

• Next is Touchy Tracey, who takes the defensive, insisting every comment the manager makes is a criticism. The manager helps Tracey regain her balance and accept constructive criticism gracefully.

• Getting through to Aggressive Alan calls for a completely different approach. Eventually, the manager pries him away from his organizational critique and shifts the focus to where it belongs, on Alan's role.

 The Dreaded Appraisal comes with a special video for the appraisee, explaining what to expect, how to prepare and how to benefit from the appraisal.
