What are traits of a high performer:

• They deliver high quality work that contributes to company goals
• They work well across cultures, time zones, and teams
• They take responsibility, solve problems proactively, and go beyond their defined role when necessary
• They contribute to institutional knowledge
• They ensure transparency, alignment, and efficiency in async and sync interactions
• They save others time and make others better
• They seek feedback, improve skills, and stay curious

Praise

Make sure your high performers know that you see them as a high performer.

Make praise constructive by being specific about

• what it is they do so well
• what the impact is

Praising can be done at many different times and many different places, such as:

• #praise channel in Slack
• Monday kickoff meeting with the entire team
  • Weekly #staff channel reminder: “What raccoon should be praised for their contribution to a WIN in this week’s team meeting? WINS are related to progress on our goals (and if we can, we'll link them to our values). Also ask managers in your team!”
