Appraisals provide employees with the opportunity to have a formal discussion with their manager about how they have performed in their job. It is a time to talk about:

• How well you have performed and whether you have achieved all of your targets.

• Things that might have stopped you from achieving your targets.

• What you think went well.

• What you think your targets might be for the coming year.

• What kind of training and development you need to do.
