Weekly Check-in

Complete the following Weekly Check-In form each Friday before 12 pm CT.

We’re determined to make sure your new work experience is the best possible! Part of this is helping you provide solid, regular updates to your manager on what you accomplish week over week.  A copy of your responses will be automatically emailed to your manager. After completing the Check-In form, you will also be prompted to rate your current experience and let the Ampersand Coaching Team know if we can support you in any way in your new role. These answers will not be shared with your manager.

Refer to the responses below for examples of an effective check-in!

An effective Weekly Check-In:
  • is concise but thoughtful (you want to keep it short, but include enough detail to make each update valuable; your responses should not be the same every week)
  • includes numbers (ex. total number of something, the percentage growth of something, etc.)
  • includes information that your manager cares about (if you're unsure what they want to be updated on or how much detail to include, ask them.)

I expect to have extra time next week, given that the blog project is wrapped up now. Please let me know if there are any other projects that I can get started on early next week. Thanks!
