X is for (e)Xamples
Part of your evidence for your Appraisal and any application for a Promotion should also be examples of your work.
Depending on your job it may be appropriate to take along examples of your work with you to the appraisal meeting. In other jobs, it should be enough to things of examples of each of the items in your competency framework.
Examples should include:
- detail of what you did,
- what you accomplished,
- how it meets that particular competency and
- any feedback you received from someone you’ve worked with about what you’ve contributed.
This blog post is an extract from our upcoming book “Prompt: 52 Prompts for Getting a Promotion Using Your Career Journal” which is being published later this year. You can pre-order your copy.
