JOB FAMILY: Engineering REVIEWER’S NAME: Daryl Adams

BUSINESS & LOCATION: Australian Paper REVIEWER’S TITLE: SESO/HV Specialist Engineer

DATE OF DISCUSSION: 29th August 2012

As a guide, the time devoted to a Review meeting should be distributed broadly as:

PAST PERFORMANCE (45%):

1. Discussion on demonstrated performance and achievements over the review period;

2. Identification and discussion with manager on barriers to better performance, possibly including attention to processes, work styles and resources;

FUTURE ACHIEVEMENT & CAPABILITY DEVELOPMENT: (55%)

3. Goal/performance standard setting for the next period (typically 12 months);

4. Planning and discussion on future development – including training, secondment, job rotation and individual mobility/career interests.

You should not overly rely on the percentages listed above; they are intended to provide a

rough guide for priorities in preparing and conducting a Performance & Development Review meeting and to illustrate the broad 45/55 split in past vs future orientation.

Supporting documentation on PDR can be obtained from Human Resources.

GRADUATE’S COMMENTS

Contrasting myself now with myself at the start of my IBL placement, I feel my experience so far has been excellent.

I have understood and realised the need and use of a CMMS especially in large industrial sites such as Maryvale. I have been exposed to MHF, safety and compliance work of

which I previously did not know of.

I have done quite a bit of electrical engineering work including fault finding, the creation and updating of company drawings, documentation and databases (especially crucial in

the electrical field), plant equipment installation, and have had hands on experience with several DCSs. Through this work, I have often been forced to research and understand

things that are cross discipline to my field which I’m sure most will agree is greatly beneficial to any engineer.

I feel have I have been given enough work to satisfy me as well as enough freedom to research things I am unsure of. Also, where I have voiced my interest in areas, I have been

given opportunities to relevant work which has given me great job satisfaction.

In addition I am highly appreciative of both the formal and informal training that I have received during my placement. Informal training has included as being shown DC motor

maintenance, thermal imaging cameras for fault finding and maintenance and the various DCS training that I have been given. Formal training that has been afforded to me

includes an APPITA presentation skills workshop, Electrical Equipment in Hazardous Areas (EEHA) training, and CPR training.

I am keeping an electronic journal of my experience at Maryvale which I plan to submit at the end of my placement for use to future IBL students and/or graduates.

Basic Guidelines for Giving and Receiving FeedbackFeedback is an important part of our communication process. Without feedback individuals do not know when they have completed a task well or whether there was room for improvement. Generally people feel more comfortable when feedback is positive/constructive rather than negative. Both positive and constructive feedback is useful as it helps individuals to become aware of themselves, understand consequences of their actions and to change or modify behaviours.

Giving Feedback

Be descriptive not prescriptive when giving feedback. Try to describe as objectively as possible what you have observed or heard.

Be specific, avoid generalisations and ambiguous statements.

Direct the feedback at modifiable behaviours, not at something which the receiver has little or no control over.

Ensure that you own the feedback by using statements such as “I have noticed, I have observed, I have seen”.

Focus on specific behaviour, rather than on a person or their intentions.

Ensure that the feedback involves what or how something was done.

Receiving Feedback

Listen carefully to the feedback being provided and don’t interrupt

Make an effort not to be defensive. Evaluate what is being said with an open mind and try to understand it.

If not forthcoming, seek examples of the behaviour to help you understand.

Summarise in your own words what you understand has been provided in the feedback to ensure that you have not misunderstood.

Reflect on the feedback to determine how you will modify or change your behaviour. This may mean giving yourself some time to think about or sort out what you

heard.

Agree on actions/remedial actions going forward.
