In the context of performance management, self-assessment requires the employee to reflect on their own performance over a defined period. It is an opportunity for employees to identify their own strengths, areas for development, and achievements that may have gone unnoticed by their manager.

This process increases awareness of one's own role and responsibilities and prepares the employee for a more productive performance conversation with their manager. It is often the first step in the periodic review process.

Self-assessment encourages people to take responsibility for their own growth and is a foundation of a culture of continuous improvement. It allows employees to actively participate in shaping their career path, instead of passively receiving an evaluation, which builds engagement and a sense of agency.
