Why it works

The session forces a shift from general performance reviews to a focused analysis of future readiness and specific growth gaps. This structure prevents the discussion from stalling on vague praise, instead driving participants to reach a consensus on who is ready for advancement and what they need to get there.

  • Clear actionable outcomes from a 3-step facilitated process
  • Increased participant engagement and buy-in
  • Documented decisions and next steps
