Advice to Management

annual reviews sometimes do not feel completely warranted as there are not always opportunities to exceed in performance more than I am already. It is also not clear in the annual review what is meant by “how” and “what” for performance while an agent may meet, not meet, or exceed these standards for how - performance and what - performance.
