"In a world of change, the learners shall inherit the earth, while the learned shall find themselves perfectly suited for a world that nolonger exists.” ― Eric Hoffer 

Performance appraisals and staff reviews often occur on a scheduled basis, once a quarter, once every six months, or in many situations only annually. There are also organizations that do not schedule reviews or appraisals; they simply monitor performance continuously with immediate feedback. 

Something to consider is that adults learn differently than children. Malcolm Knowles identified this as andragogy, the method and practice of teaching adult learners. There is a critical difference. Adult learning is self-directed in nature. That is why staff must be aware of the expectations and responsibilities of their specific jobs. That allows the staff member to have control of his/her work environment within the position context.  

Another critical component of andragogy is the need for immediacy in the required application or job task.  

While learning is continuous, and success is a “progressive realization of a worthwhile dream, vision or goal;” knowing how to accomplish active, immediate ongoing assessments and feedback can be guided by the following: 

• A strong leader understands the value of genuine curiosity.  
  
• Knowing how to facilitate conversations that provoke curiosity that leads to understanding, learning, and the ability to identify new possibilities is critical. 
  
• Discoveries will occur, leading to transformations that change the character and value of who we are and how we can increase value and effectiveness.
