i'm not a person that goes around carrying their core roles saying "that's not my job".
i got my review, and my score was ok, but the entire thing centered around the fact that i need to "lead my peers" and how unconfident i am in myself because i'm not interested in a more global leadership position. my etl also explained that i need to send the etls emails when i "coach" my peers on things so i am holding them accountable, and i need to monitor their performance to report back to the etl team on what i see for "my development into a global leader". basically a snitch based on his examples. one example the exec used, was that i saw a tl pushing product incorrectly. i let him know that this area required him to do things differently than what he was doing (he's new in the dept). no biggie. my etl says that i should've documented it and sent it out to the etl team so they can monitor his performance more closely. in reality, i heard them talking about him because he told them he's leaving in a couple of months anyway, and they've already transferred in a replacement, thus over headcount and needing to get him out.
now don't get me wrong, if i saw someone stealing or seriously doing something out of line, especially to the team, i would correct/report it immediately. if i see another tm or tl doing something against bp or if they just need help, i talk to them on the spot, but i don't see it as my duty to report every little instance to the exec team like a headhunter. the way i see it, it's my job to manage my team. and it's the other tl's job to manage theirs. it's not my role to manage to tl group and i don't get paid to do so. i'm not sure how to take my feedback. nothing was based on last year's performance or anything related to my management skills or even my position. my results are golden. i'm so tired of being told i should want to "do more" and being "challenged" to be an stl lap dog. i don't want to do more. i love my team. i have a good thing going on where i don't want to drive the crown over people on a daily basis. overall, i'm just really confused, and later got pulled into the hr office because i had not "communicated any opportunities" with documentation on my peers. i feel like i've fallen into a bad situation which doesn't promote a healthy team environment. *sigh*
