When you're conducting a performance review as a leader, there are certain questions you should ask. You should never dive into a performance review (or an annual appraisal) without preparing questions in advance. This will lead to you ask vague questions or ones that won't be helpful for you at all.

The best questions to ask when you're conducting a performance review are ones that will help you track your employee's progress since the last performance review as well as understand their current performance, areas for improvement, and career goals. When you have looked at all these angles, you will have a much better understanding of your employee's true performance at work and you will be able to evaluate them better.

In this video, you will learn exactly what questions to ask in a performance review (from a leader or manager's perspective). I've broken it down into five broad areas you need to cover as a leader and have given you sample questions for each area. By the end of this video, you will know what questions leaders should ask in a performance review.
