Blacks of Bacton
Personal Development Review 2024

As a member of staff working for Blacks of Bacton, your input to each individual company is crucial to the overall success of our business group.   No matter what tasks you are performing, every day the way in which you engage with it directly impacts the overall business performance.  Collectively everyone’s activity added together is what makes or breaks our success, and it is important that we pull in the same direction if we wish to succeed as a team.  Understanding how you feel about your job and your relationship with colleagues and the company is key to being able to make the workplace more enjoyable and efficient.  Equally for the management team, identifying any areas where improvements might be made, and understanding what could be done to improve your ability to do your job, all contributes to achieving our goals for the business.

To this end we believe that operating a system which formalises an annual review is helpful for ensuring we pause and take stock of where we are.  Most of you are familiar with the Personal Development Assessment which forms part of this review process.  Your contribution to this process is important and this year we will be running an on-line questionnaire as the starting point for our review.  For anyone who has difficulty completing the on-line forms we can let you have a paper version to complete.

Once your team has completed their on-line questionnaires or returned their form, their managers will determine how best to follow up on the next step which may be via individual meetings or a team review.   Please spend a bit of time thinking about your answers so that this review process provides constructive feedback to your colleagues and your manager and we can identify areas where we can improve in the future.
