How should the review task be configured to include a self-review step alongside the manager review in the performance review process?

Configuring the review task to include a self-review step alongside the manager review in the performance review process requires careful sequencing of the review steps. By updating the review step sequence number for both the self-review and manager review to be the same, you effectively indicate that these two steps occur simultaneously within the review process.

This simultaneous configuration ensures that employees can complete their self-review while the manager is conducting their review. It fosters a more comprehensive performance evaluation, allowing both parties to reflect on the same information at the same time. This arrangement not only enhances communication and understanding between the employee and the manager but also supports a more collaborative approach to the performance review, as both reviews can inform and build upon one another in real-time.

This method is particularly beneficial because it allows for immediate feedback and discussion, leading to a more productive and engaging review process overall.
