Liam and Jo discuss the importance of timing and frequency in performance conversations within organisations. They analyse data regarding when employees should have their first performance discussions and the implications of these timings on employee performance and retention. The conversation highlights the critical nature of the first few months of employment and how early performance assessments can lead to misleading conclusions about an employee's capabilities. They conclude that performance conversations should ideally occur around the six-month mark, with regular check-ins during the onboarding process to set clear expectations and foster understanding of performance metrics.
