Coaching:
Just as we have done with the ADOS position, each General Manager should, and will have a voice during the review process. Because this role reports to multiple people, here is how the coaching process will take place:
• ADOS will send the Coaching form to ASM.
• ASM will have 1 week to complete the form and send it back to ADOS.
• During the time that ASM is completing this form, ADOS will reach out to each of you and the VPSM to obtain feedback and areas you would like to see focus. You would also share any successes and areas of opportunities you see with the ASM's performance.
