personal approach that creates the climate. It is my daily mood that makes the weather. I

possess tremendous power to make a life miserable or joyous.”

Areas where you think you’re doing much better, but your colleagues don’t agree

36

© 2013 Zenger Folkman

What External Factors . . .

• Raters Evolve– After multiple assessments people rate more strictly

because their expectations have been raised.– If raters don’t see change in areas they identified in earlier

surveys, they send an even stronger signal.

• Environment Changes– New job, boss, or work team– New duties or responsibilities– External economic, market, or regulatory factors– Organizational changes impacting overall morale

Page 1-5 37

might account for overall scores going down?

© 2013 Zenger Folkman

Clues that may suggest an unresolved Critical Flaw

• Competency scores below 3.4

• Poor performance reviews

• Written comments

Page 1-6 38

Individual Exercise

• Complete the Step-by-Step Analysis in your workbooks

• Review the important messages and patterns from your recent 360

• Update Boxes 1 and 2 of your Advancement Plan

Sample Development Plan

1. Potential Critical Flaws

Establishes Stretch Goals – overall rating was 3.2. There were no comments that indicated this was an area of concern and this was not listed among the top 10 important competencies for my current position. I suspect this low rating was a result of my recent promotion and lack of opportunity to do any new goal setting, so far, with my current team.

2. My Strengths (4 highest rated, below 90th percentile)

Displays High Integrity and Honesty - ImportantTakes InitiativeBuilds Relationships - ImportantConnects the Group to the Outside World - Important to Manager
