Low performance at work is no good. It can be an indicator something is wrong. Often we need to make a change or pivot. Either you or your leader could notice or bring up the low performance.

Why you might have low performance:

Don't care

Personal life impacting work

Poor leader / leadership

Lack of support

Don't have the tools needed

Not aligning to the vision or bigger picture

Lack of plan or schedule

Poor communication

Not putting in the work / effort

Can't get motivated / lack of energy

Not being challenged enough / not working on the right projects or type of work

Little to no recognition / appreciation

Not being seen or heard

Doing too much

Cluttered physical space

Toxic work environment

What to do about it:

Ask yourself how you are feeling

Understand expectations / goals / KPI's /etc.

Create a plan

Assess if you're in the right role / working for right leader / in right organization

Do you need to take time off?

Delegate? Rebalance workload?

Ask for what you need to be successful

Set clear expectations

Communicate - bordering over communication efforts / progress

Track progress

Get your voice heard

Clean, organized, distraction free workspace

Follow through, follow up

Understand your impact

Do the things that fill your bucket

Ask for continuous feedback
