#190 Performance Conversations – with Christopher D. Lee

This week’s guest on Being Human is Christopher D. Lee, PhD, author and the HR Director at one of the USA’s oldest and most prestigious colleges, William & Mary.
Christopher has a passion for human performance. There are three things we know about traditional performance appraisals: they are widely used, universally despised, and probably ineffective.
What should leaders do instead? Adopt a coaching mindset and commit to regular, structured performance conversations. Christopher offers a wealth of insight and practical ideas about how to elevate these conversations for deep impact.

We talk:

  • The mentor that changed Christopher’s life
  • Why relationships matter
  • Your job is not to evaluate
  • Focus on intent
  • Have people feel good
