Must Ask Self Evaluation Questions
- What three achievements had the biggest impact this period, and how did you measure that impact?
This shifts the focus from activity to outcomes and prompts you to quantify results. It helps your manager calibrate ratings and recognize high-value work.
- Where did you fall short, and what did you learn or change as a result?
Honest reflection shows accountability and a growth mindset. It gives leaders clear signals for coaching, training, or process fixes.
- Which skills did you strengthen, and which do you want to develop next quarter?
Identifying strengths and gaps makes your development plan specific. It also guides which projects or training to prioritize.
- What goals will you commit to before the next review, and what metrics will you use to track them?
Measurable goals drive follow-through and make performance discussions objective. They align your self review with company targets and the review cycle.
- What support, tools, or feedback do you need from your manager or team to succeed?
Clarifying support needs removes blockers and improves collaboration. If you work cross-functionally, inputs here can feed into the Group evaluation form.
