I am enjoying these short sniptets of advice on management/leadership/work improvement. I have taken notes and will look at them regularly. I am looking forward to your next installment.

Thank you for your great work here Ed. The points you raise are a timely lesson/reminder coming up to the performance discussions in my own workplace.

Totally agree with keeping the main focus on the positives, it always produces far better results over time.

Great video. You are right on target with the message. People need to know they are appreciated, and recognizing their accomplishments does help them want to do more. Actually, I don’t have any criticism; keep up the good work.

Ed,

Thank you for the insights. Great content. Great video. Great concept.

I read your “Enlightened Leadership” book a few years ago. Really good book. Now, by way of my friend Kevin Eikenberry, I’ve found your blog.

I’ve been looking at doing something similar on my blog. Thanks for pioneering the approach.

Timely topic: doing reviews next week! Since no visual aids, I switched to another application and just listened while doing other work that didn’t require a lot of attention. Worked for me.

Thank you. My observation is this is one part of quality performance review. My initial reaction was this is management and the first two video’s have been more leadership oriented. The topic did carry an important effective communication component that if developed might broaden the presentation to more of a leadership catagory. I agree with a the handout thought but I wanted to let you know I am developing a handout/notes from each session. Thanks again, Keith

Ed,

Thanks for video. I never look forward to appraisals, however your 4 stage approach will simplify the process. I am looking forward to using this format.

Ed, I love all three videos you have produced. They are short and to the point. I will be using the information from video’s two and three over the next few days and I will let you know how it works. thanks for sharing this wonderful information with us.

Although this video was good it did not bring me as much value as the prior 2. This was due to the subject line.

Ed again another helpful video. One that I want to share with some of my supervisors. Don’t worry about the hair looked great after just leaving the barber.
