How We Do Our Annual Staff Reviews

I want to share how we do our staff review process at The Glade Church. We begin this process at the end of August and give the staff a month to complete the process of requesting and submitting reviews. Note that the staff members each create their own staff review sheet with content from their personal job description. Each supervisor will then meet with the staff member to go over the reviews.

The following is the set of instructions we give to our staff.

We are using a 360° evaluation process again this year. The process includes your immediate supervisor, yourself, and a combination of laypersons and colleagues.
  1. Create your review sheet using the Senior Pastor’s review as a guide (You may download my review as a sample). The review will include three sections to rate task performance (evaluation based on staff member’s job description), relationship performance, and team performance.

  2. Use a five-point scale.
    4 – Excellent (Great!)
    3 – Good (Yes!)
    2 – Satisfactory (OK)
    1 – Needs Improvement (I’m just sayin’)
    0 – Unsatisfactory  (No!)
  3. Select and distribute to the following types of people for evaluation:

    • A combination of five colleagues/peers or laypersons
    • One evaluation for you to evaluate yourself
    • One evaluation for your direct supervisor to evaluate you

    Inform Craig Webb and Faye Miller by e-mail who your feedback persons are.

  4. Code each form (top right corner) to indicate the following:
    • “S” - Supervisor
    • “C” - Colleague
    • “L” - Lay Leader
    • “Y” - Yourself
       
  5. Distribute to everyone evaluating you in an envelope marked to go to Faye Miller.

  6. Reviews should be returned to Faye by Thursday, September 29.

    Car Talk's "As The Wrench Turns" Premieres this Weekend

    Image
    My family is a huge fan of the NPR program Car Talk . So, I am stoked to see that they have an animated program featuring Click & Clack, the Tappet brothers. Here's a summary from the website: Tom and Ray Magliozzi, the didactic duo whose voices grace the NPR airwaves on the ever-popular radio show Car Talk, have moved themselves into the world of animation with the all-new primetime series Click & Clack's As the Wrench Turns . The program takes off from the hit NPR show and follows the on- and off-air escapades of Click and Clack, the Tappet brothers (alter-egos of Tom and Ray Magliozzi) as they try to fix cars, fend off disgruntled customers and seek out increasingly creative ways to goof off. Click & Clack's As the Wrench Turns is set at Car Talk Plaza, a fictional building that houses their radio studio and their famed garage in Harvard Square in Cambridge, Massachusetts. You'll have to check your local station for the schedule. Nashville's WNPT Cha...

    Fireproof movie Garners Multiple Endorsements from Marriage Advocates

    Image
    ALBANY, Ga., March 27, 2008 - " Fireproof ," the new action/relationship film from the creators of "Facing the Giants" and "Flywheel," releases this September from Sherwood Pictures and Provident Films. Already the movie is uniting marriage advocates from across the U.S. National groups such as Focus on the Family, Outreach, FamilyLife, The Marriage CoMission, America's Family Coaches, AMFM, Marriage Alive Communications, and MarriageToday endorse the movie and are urging their constituencies to see it. Influencers such as marriage expert Gary Smalley and Bubba Cathy of Chick-fil-A are also working to spread the word. It's no secret that U.S. marriages are in crisis. The U.S. Census Bureau and marriage organizations vary on the stats but agree that nearly half of all weddings lead to divorce—with rates highest in the Bible belt. Some 25 percent of U.S. adults divorce at least once; and given the abundance of poor marriages, many couples skip it out...

    Preaching through the Bible in a Year - 2 Plans!

    Image
    I'm reading through the Bible again this year using George Guthrie's Reading God's Story: A Chronological Daily Bible plan. In 2011, our entire church used the reading plan in response to the Radical sermon and small group series we did at the end of 2010. I'm was delighted to see Aaron Linne's Blog post about a new online resource with lists of sermons inspired by the Read the Bible for Life initiative. These lists from B&H Publishing are designed so that you can take a church through the Bible in a year. They currently have a plan prepared by David Platt (52 sermons) and Chuck Maxwell (50 sermons). Check the tabs at the top to switch between the two lists. Access the complimentary lists of sermons here ... Learn how to use this resource on your iPhone, Android, or tablet here ...
