When appraisals demotivate

At a recent reception I was talking to a junior solicitor.  She had worked for the same law firm for nearly three years but, despite the recession, was planning to leave.

When I asked her why she said that she had had enough promises to last a  lifetime none of which had materialised.

It turns out that when she first arrived at the firm she was asked to work on a project which involved a lot of telephone work.  She didn’t feel especially confident on the telephone so had asked for some telephone skills training.
