Because Brian sets clear expectations, provides for gaps in capability, and defines milestones for measurement, the feedback he gives can be fact-based and easy to deliver. He supports the development of internal social networks that span functions and divisions to give everybody a broader understanding of the organization and help spot opportunities to learn and to add value. Instead of a once-annual conversation about career goals at the time of the annual performance review, Brian has frequent short conversations throughout the year regarding career goals and interests. When planning the team’s work, he often asks everybody to identify both how they can contribute and what they would like to (or could) learn. This gives employees the primary responsibility for clarifying what they want to learn and for proposing ways to incorporate on-the-job learning. It also helps to avoid having employees volunteer to perform only the tasks that they are already highly skilled at. Brian actively seeks feedback on proposals, deliverables, and is receptive to advice. He always aims to make improvements, and in general gives the impression that he is coachable, which is a great example for everyone." and "Brian is an excellent partner.
