Performance Review & Promotion Kit

Performance Review & Promotion Kit — Build the case for your promotion all year — then write and say it well.

Promotions are not prizes for quiet hard work — they are cases, argued with evidence, at the right moment, to the right person. Most people build no case at all: they forget their own wins by review time, undersell them in the self-appraisal, and never actually ask for the promotion out loud. This kit fixes all three. A brag document template that captures your wins monthly, a self-appraisal template with strong example answers, and a guide with six weak-to-strong rewrite examples plus word-for-word scripts for asking — and for handling "not this cycle".

What's inside

• Brag Document Template (DOCX): twelve monthly sections with fill-in prompts — shipped work, measurable impact, problems solved, people helped, praise received — so review season starts with a full evidence file instead of a blank memory
• Self-Appraisal Template (DOCX): a structured fill-in for the whole review — summary, achievements, challenges, growth, goals and the ask — with example strong answers under every section
• The promotion case system (PDF guide): what to log weekly, how ratings actually get decided, and how to time the conversation before calibration — not after
• 6 before/after rewrite examples showing exactly how underselling sounds and how to fix it — plus the self-appraisal mistakes that quietly cost ratings
• Word-for-word scripts for asking for the promotion conversation and for responding to "not this cycle" so it converts into a written plan instead of a dead end
