Performance review questions (Culture Amp)

Culture Amp · cultureamp.com Free Beginner

A bank of questions for self-reviews, manager reviews and peer feedback from an employee-feedback company. Useful when you are writing your first review form and want questions that ask about results and behaviour rather than personality.

  • Ask about specific results and examples, not general traits.
  • Use the same few questions for self, manager and peer input.
  • Include a forward-looking question about growth and support.
