Employee Review Process

Project details

What we need
  • A documented process outlining how to administer a top-down, peer-to-peer, or a full 360 employee review process
  • A communication plan to share the process with others in the Organization to help them understand the approach and desired outcomes
  • Recommendations on tools that can be used to collect feedback (anonymous or identified) and organize quantitative and qualitative results
  • Best practices for rolling out the performance reviews, and coaching advice for managers and individual contributors
Additional details

Cycles for feedback is a big part of our organization. While it's embedded as a central teaching tool in our high school apprenticeship program and we still have work to do to attain clarity and consistency for supportive and actionable feedback loops at the staff and board level.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a common language and platform to base it on,, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have experience and examples of previously used feedback systems, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $8,686 , allowing us to support our team and organization in becoming more effective so we can offer better incentives and compensation in order to retain them and support their continued growth.

unCommon Construction relies on staff's ability to maintain and model professionalism, collaboration, and a spirit of teamwork in all aspects of our work. As such, staff evaluations are based on the same MHA Labs framework that creates the foundation for our program culture, and are based upon the same expectations used to evaluate high school apprentice technical, professional and leadership development.

Our mission

unCommon Construction uses the build process to empower youth with the skills, network, resources, and experience to lead the workforce after high school or college.

What we do

Through unCommon's high school apprenticeship program, students from different schools apply to join a diverse team to earn hourly pay and school credit for building a house in a semester. Upon the sale of each home, apprentices also earn a matching "Equity Award" scholarship for further education, industry certifications or the tools they need for a full-time job. With 100+ hours of experience in a real-world learning environment per semester, apprentices develop skills and relationships that last as long as the house they use to do so.
