Procrastination

Early start

Managers want to shift to online appraisals quickly.

Sessions fill up within a single day.

There is a waiting list for attending training.

It is easy to add to and everything was in one place.

Nurse

The appraisal was fuller and showed a better level of constructive interaction and purposeful review.

Nurse

Much less work for managers in the long run.

Manager

Much more efficient. Much more transparent for the nurse and appraiser.

Manager

There was more insightful manager feedback.

Loved not having to carry a heavy portfolio, keeping it secured.
