Year End Review....How To Survive

There's always something a little nerve wrecking about mid year review time for most people. "Did I actually do anything this year", is a common question.

When going to a year end review do your home work and prepare. The key to defend 365 days of web surfing and amazon shopping is to be creative and show value to the company. Turn the tables on them and act like your presence with the company is what creates money for them.

I find it best to pad my review by adding tasks that most of us would call trivial and blow them out of proportion. "Well, I did create a folder and rename it!" I'll just bill that as a research and development project investigating efficiencies in our data structure. Using this method it's very easy to make yourself appear as the most essential part of the organization and the thought of you not getting a raise could crash the entire financial model the company is based on. Btw this blog.....billed as advertising and branding of the company.
