A
Hey
there,
this
is
lee
senior
support
engineering
manager,
america's
east
with
git
lab,
and
I'm
here
to
give
a
short
presentation
on
how
to
provide
feedback
to
your
manager
for
this
performance
review
cycle.
So
I
wanted
to
take
a
minute
and
share
this
slide
deck
that
I
put
together
to
talk
to
you
about.
What's
what's
happening
so
specifically,
what
I
share
here
is
for
support
engineers.
A
If
you
see
other
groups,
they
may
be
following
slightly
different
processes.
That's
okay!
That's
expected
we're
doing
what
we're
doing.
This
applies
to
you
if
you're
a
support
engineer.
So
I
wanted
to
give
a
small
bit
of
background.
If
you've
been
here
for
a
while
in
the
past,
we
use
compa
groups.
They're
now
switched
to
performance
factor
if
you're
new
you'll
just
be
exposed
to
performance
factor
I'll
talk
a
little
bit
more
about
what
that
means
and
how
that
works.
A
A
So
support
was
going
with
that
greater
engineering
started
to
adapt
and
evolve
the
process
and
created
a
space
for
engineers
and
for
individual
contributors
to
share
feedback
with
their
managers,
and
when
we
saw
that
we
got
together
as
a
management
team
and
said,
hey
can
we
do
this,
and
when
we
did
that
we
said
yes,
we
should
create
a
space
for
individual
contributors
to
share
their
feedback
with
managers.
So
we've
adopted
the
process
that
engineering
is
using,
so
there's
a
template.
A
It's
linked
here
if
you're
watching
this
on
youtube,
it'll
be
in
the
description
as
well
below.
Otherwise,
if
you're
consuming
this
as
a
slide
deck
you're,
not
hearing
me
talk
so
yeah
anyway.
That's
what
this
spreadsheet.
This
document
is
going
to
cover.
So
I
want
to
take
a
step
back
zoom
out
now
to
let
you
know
things
are
changing
and
what
does
that
actually
mean?
A
What
is
the
process
going
to
look
like
so
now
we
have
this
step
where
ics
and
managers
can
talk
about
performance
and
you're
going
to
talk
with
examples
as
the
individual
contributor,
you
will
be
leading
that
discussion.
Your
manager
is
not
going
to
start
that
on
your
behalf.
You
should,
but
you
don't
have
to
if
you
feel
comfortable
or
you've
already
been
discussing
performance
or
you
don't
want
to
discuss
performance,
you
don't
have
to
now.
A
If
you
are
someone
who
is
uncomfortable
but
wants
to
become
comfortable,
and
you
don't
feel
comfortable
talking
about
that
with
your
manager,
you
can
approach
myself
or
another
senior
manager
and
we
can
help
and
help
you
start
to
have
that
conversation,
but
otherwise
know
that
if
you
want
to
engage
you
can,
if
you
don't
that's
okay
as
well.
So
once
managers
have
some
feedback
from
yourself
or
come
to
their
own
conclusions
about
your
performance.
They'll
provide
that
to
people.
A
Ops
peopleapps
will
take
some
time
to
confirm
that
then
they'll
pass
it
back
to
the
department
to
confirm
the
confirmation
and
then
managers
will
share
that
with
each
person
individually.
So
that's
the
general
flow
later
on
in
this
deck.
I
have
some
more
specific
dates
that
are
important
for
you,
but
that's
the
general
gist.
A
Now
this
next
slide.
Here
I
wanted
to
take
a
minute
to
talk
about
exactly
what
I'm
sharing
with
you
today
we
have
made
this
template,
which
you
can
see
on
the
screen
and
it
uses
the
worksheet
descriptions
which
you
see
with
the
black
bars
there.
Now
this
example
is
outlined
in
the
template
as
well,
but
I
wanted
to
reinforce
it
here.
The
template
is
meant
to
be
used
with
the
descriptions
from
the
performance
factor
worksheet.
So
now
you
see
it
I've
connected
it.
A
What
we're
creating
right
here
with
this
template
is
a
tool
that,
if
you
haven't,
had
a
performance
conversation
and
you
want
to-
and
you
don't
know
where
to
start
or
maybe
you
started
a
conversation,
but
you
want
to
make
it
easier.
This
template
should
help
that's
what
it's
there
for.
If
you
already
have
started
a
conversation
and
you
have
a
performance,
excuse
me
a
path
to
promo
doc
in
progress
or
something
like
that.
You're
golden!
You
don't
need
this
template.
A
You
should
use
those
materials,
but
if
you're
saying
actually
I
don't
know
where
to
start
this
template
is
for
you
or,
if
you're
saying,
I'm
not
sure.
If
my
examples
are
good
enough,
how
do
I
use
them?
This
template
is
for
you.
So
again,
I
want
to
echo
you
don't
have
to
use
this.
It's
meant
to
help.
A
A
General
engineering
is
not
setting
that
deadline
of
november
16th.
We
are
because
we
want
to
be
more
clear
and
help.
So
with
that,
the
last
thing
I
want
to
share
today,
you
might
say:
actually
we
have
this
performance
factor
worksheet,
that's
what
my
manager
can
use
to
justify
their
decision.
Why
shouldn't?
I
just
use
that
worksheet
myself
and
the
answer
is
that
worksheet
is
output
and
really,
if
you
presented
that
worksheet
to
your
manager,
they're
going
to
ask
you
for
the
examples.
A
So
you
should
take
the
time
now
to
get
those
examples
to
help
your
manager
and
your
manager
is
going
to
be
thinking
of
those
examples
when
they're
filling
out
that
worksheet.
So
if
you
help
them
that
will
help
them
right.
That's
going
to
be
really
helpful.
The
other
thing
to
note
that
I
need
to
be
clear
about
it's.
It's
a
hard
thing
to
say
and
hear,
but
your
manager
does
determine
your
performance
factor.
You
can
provide
examples
and
communicate
with
your
manager,
but
they
ultimately
make
that
decision.
A
So
with
that,
if
you
did
a
worksheet
and
it
didn't
match
your
manager
and
you
thought
you
were
right,
but
your
manager
input
something
different
you're
going
to
have
mismatched
expectations
and
that's
going
to
be
a
really
hard
conversation.
So
I
think
setting
the
right
expectation
that
you
can
provide
the
input
to
help
your
manager
make
their
decision
and
your
manager
can
show
you
the
worksheet
when
it's
all
done.
A
A
I
will
not
know
my
performance
factor
until
it's
all
said
and
done
and
managers
your
manager,
if
they
report
to
me
or
another
senior
manager,
will
not
know
their
performance
factor
until
it's
all
said
and
done
so
they
can
use
the
same
process
to
use
the
template
to
help
to
take
a
look
to
present
examples
and
go
from
there.
So
I
want
to
be
very
clear
that,
across
the
board,
it's
being
applied
the
same
way.
A
No
one
is
exempt
from
that
experience,
and
hopefully,
with
the
feedback
we
get
this
year,
we
can
use
that
to
evolve
it
for
next
year,
so
just
to
take
the
final
seconds
here.
To
recap:
if
you
want
to
have
performance
conversations,
if
you
don't
know
where
to
start
this
template
and
this
slide
deck
should
help
if
you've
already
started
great.
A
If
you
don't
want
to
talk
about
it,
great
know
that
your
manager
is
going
to
be
responsible
for
inputting
that
on
november
24th,
the
last
time
that
you
should
be
talking
to
them
about
it
november
16th.
So
keep
that
in
mind.
So
thanks
all.
I
hope
this
was
helpful
and
see
the
youtube
comments.
If
you're
watching
this
for
more
links,
if
they're
not
present,
where
you're
seeing

otherwise
have
a
great
one.
Thanks.
