Here’s how I would rate each statement:

  1. You ask one of the subject matter experts assigned to your program what they can do to help you improve.

    • Rating: BEST
    • This response demonstrates a willingness to collaborate and seek guidance from others who have more expertise. It shows initiative to improve by leveraging available resources.
  2. You have been hitting your targets most other months so you conclude it's due to external factors and continue doing what you have been doing.

    • Rating: WORST
    • This response reflects a lack of accountability and an unwillingness to change or adapt. It dismisses the possibility of personal or programmatic improvements and indicates a defeatist attitude.
  3. You schedule some time for yourself to focus on reviewing the metrics and resource materials and figure out actions you can take to improve.

    • Rating: NEUTRAL
    • While this response demonstrates a proactive approach to self-reflection and improvement, it could be considered neutral because it lacks collaboration with others. It is a positive step, but seeking input from colleagues or experts could enhance the process.
