The feedforward interview : an innovative approach to performance appraisal

Marie-Hélène Budworth, Gary P. Latham

This paper describes a structured interview process intended to support managers in developing their employees. In response to the challenges with traditional feedback and performance management practices, the feedforward interview provides an alternative discussion format where the manager is focused on listening and understanding the employee, while guiding through a process to identify performance strengths. The benefits of this technique for interpersonal as well as organizational outcomes is explained.
