This week we begin a new Coaching Cafe series focused on the mid-year performance review.

While many leaders and HR teams are preparing for the usual cycle of meetings and conversations, some organisations are taking a very different approach. Increasingly, companies are deciding to move away from formal mid-year and annual review processes altogether, citing the time involved, low engagement and delayed feedback as outweighing the benefits.

At Open Door, we have long advocated for regular check-ins, timely feedback and ongoing coaching conversations, rather than relying on a single once or twice-yearly event. It seems this thinking is becoming increasingly relevant.

Join Dr Natalie Ashdown and leadership and HR specialist Paula Jones-Hunt as we explore:

✓ The trends shaping performance reviews and why some organisations are moving away from formal mid-year and annual events

✓ The role of coaching in performance reviews

✓ How leaders and coaches can take a coaching approach to improve the process and create more meaningful engagement

Whether you are beginning the performance review cycle — or rethinking it entirely — this webinar will provide practical insights and valuable approaches to support better conversations.
