As FY16-17 is about to come to an end, 'appraisal' is the
buzzword in corporate houses. While different companies or different departments may have their own criteria to evaluate the
individual performance of its employees, there are certain fundamentals that remain unchanged. Here's a list of 10 things you can do
to not only become a productive and a valuable employee but also secure a good appraisal this season.
1.Document all your achievements: If you
have proof of all your work, it will help you and the boss avoid recency bias.
Recency bias makes one focus only on events in the recent past.
Besides, if you keep a record, the boss has no way to refute your hard work.
2. Self-evaluation: Self-evaluation
will help you understand where you stand in the organisation and how much
increment you can expect. This way you will have no one to blame but yourself
for the size of your salary hike.
3. Equation with boss: If you
are at odds with your boss, all your diligence and hard work may go down the
drain if he is the decision-maker for your increment.
4. Be a team player: Getting
along with colleagues and helping or guiding them is often seen as a key trait
which can be the crucial difference between a good and an average increment.
5. Set your future goals: Set
your goals for the next year and discuss them with your boss. This is a clear
indication of your loyalty and commitment to the company and is bound to attract a good
appraisal and higher increment.
6. Go beyond your KRA's: Flexibility
at work is the key to drawing attention to your work. If you are seen as a
multi-tasker and dependable, rest assured you will be valued and are bound to
get a good hike. Don't just stick to your KRAs.
7. Get your work assessed by your boss regularly: Knowing
if you are on track and where you are lagging will help you grow professionally. This exercise will not only keep your boss
aware of the quality of work you are putting in, but also keep you at the top
of his mind at increment time.
8. Reinvent your skills: If you
constantly upgrade and keep up with latest developments, you will have an edge
over others and the company will be keen to retain you.
9. Be a problem solver: Thinking
out of the box and coming up with a solution will make you a worthy employee.
Problem solvers are likely to be in the boss' good books and therefore
get favourable treatment especially when it comes to salary hikes.
10. Be a committed employee: Stay
committed to your work and be punctual about your in-time. Always reach a
couple of minutes before reporting time at your workstation. Punctuality not
only shows that you are disciplined but also reflects your sincerity and
commitment.
