Chain Steps

This is a 3-step chain for annual or quarterly performance review prep. Takes 30-45 minutes and produces a complete self-evaluation package.

Step 1 — Win Inventory & Metrics Summary

Prompt: "I'm preparing my annual performance self-evaluation. Help me structure my wins from this year. Based on this information: [PASTE: quota attainment, key deals closed, metrics, notable achievements, challenges overcome]. Organize into: (1) Quantitative wins (quota %, revenue, deal count, pipeline generated), (2) Qualitative wins (key accounts, new verticals, complex deals, team contributions), (3) Challenges I navigated and how, (4) Skills I developed this year with evidence. Format for a performance review document."

Step 2 — Self-Evaluation Narrative

Prompt: "Using this win inventory: [PASTE STEP 1 OUTPUT]. Write a first-person performance self-evaluation narrative for my annual review. Structure: (1) Overall year summary — where I performed against expectations, (2) Top 3 highlights with specific impact, (3) Development areas I worked on and evidence of progress, (4) One honest area where I still have room to grow, (5) What I'm most proud of that doesn't show up in the numbers. Tone: confident but not boastful, honest about gaps. Under 500 words."

Step 3 — Goals for Next Year

Prompt: "Based on my performance this year: [PASTE STEPS 1-2 SUMMARY]. Help me build 3-5 specific, measurable goals for next year that: (1) Address my identified development areas, (2) Align with what my manager cares about (I know they prioritize: [LIST MANAGER'S PRIORITIES]), (3) Are ambitious but achievable based on my track record. For each goal, include: the specific target, how success is measured, and what I'll need to achieve it."
