Prompts for Year-End Review
PROMPT
WHY IT WORKS
•
Tells Nadia the system + artifact (Workday self-eval) Forces dual lens (Performance + DRIVE) SBI request prevents vague “I’m a hard worker” language
Employee self-evaluation (WHAT + HOW) “I’m completing my Year-End self-evaluation in Workday. Write a concise self-eval that covers (1) Performance/What I delivered and (2) DRIVE Values/How I worked. Use Situation – Behavior – Impact (SBI) style specificity and keep it to ~180– 220 words. Here are my facts: [bullets].” Strengths section (values-forward) “Draft 3 short strengths statements for my year- end review that map to DRIVE values. For each, include one concrete example (SBI style). Use a confident but not braggy tone. Inputs: [bullets].”

•
Creates value-labeled evidence , which calibrates better than adjectives Tone constraint avoids sounding inflated
•
• •
Turn messy notes into clean accomplishments
Converts “wall of context” into scannable outcomes “Impact → action → evidence” creates exec -ready credibility
“Here are my raw notes from the year. Convert them into 5 accomplishment bullets that are outcome-first (impact → what I did → evidence). Keep each bullet to one sentence: [paste notes].”
• •
Growth area / opportunity (future-focused, safe tone)
Keeps it improvement-oriented, not self-critical Produces an action , not just a weakness
“Help me write one development area for my year- end review that’s constructive and forward-looking (what I’ll do more of/less of/differently). Keep it to 2– 3 sentences and include a practical next step. Context: [role] and [key work].”
•
Manager comment draft (balanced, Workday-ready)
Bakes in your org’s expectation: recognize + calibrate + develop
•
SBI keeps it defensible and fair
“I’m writing year-end comments for my direct report. Draft a Workday-ready comment that recognizes strengths, references 1–2 specific outcomes, and names one ‘do more of’ opportunity. Tie to 2 DRIVE values and use SBI. Inputs: [bullets]. Length: ~120–160 words.”
