End of cycle comments and ratings:
Mr X diligently undertook the tasks assigned to him
and was always willing to give helpful advice and
support to other colleagues in the execution of their
duties. Whenever a problem or error was
encountered, he worked with his team to find the
cause and to prevent re-occurrence. He is
encouraged to continue with this commitment.
I have always attempted to maintain high
performance of the financial and administrative
services. During the period this was particularly
difficult as a key team member left for another post.
However, the team worked really well to continue to
give a good service and comply with deadlines.
