The Mid-Year Check-In, during Phase 2, gives you and your employees an opportunity to discuss goal accomplishments in the first half of the year, explore and understand priorities for the remainder of the year, and discuss progress against the development plan. It allows you to give specific feedback and coaching to your employees, as well as provide a general sense of how your employees' performance is being measured without assigning ratings. An important part of the mid-year conversation is to recognize your employees' contributions.
