Ask for their honest, straightforward thinking. Pose specific questions to each. Here's a list of issues to work with. Ask “how well do I:

	look for ways to meet or exceed client/customer needs?
	look for ways to meet or exceed management's needs?
	take a positive approach to business?
	work effectively with people in a wide variety of circumstances?
	analyze complex situations accurately and in a timely manner?
	minimize activities that do not add value to the organization?
	value others' thinking; champion others' thoughts?
	understand how to get things done in the organization?
	have in-depth industry knowledge?
	overcome obstacles?
	quickly act when I see an opportunity?
	demonstrate intellectual curiosity?
	make sure I can be counted on?
	remain in control when stressed or pressed?
	gain trust?
	admit responsibility for failures or mistakes?
	help others?
