Tips for a meaningful self-assessment
- Use the Country user guide (PDF) to navigate the assessment and create the roadmap and action plan.
- Provide candid, factual responses to the assessment questions. Discuss as a team and clear assumptions. Document the evidence to create a record trail.
- Assess the level of impact, effort, urgency and momentum based on your specific context and the current institutional environment. These are subjective and vary across contexts and time. Use your best judgement and be realistic.
- Keep track of implementation in the system to get a snapshot of the current status at any time and assess progress over time.
- Use the assessment record, roadmap, action plan and heatmap to support internal discussions, within the working team and with executive levels.
- Apply the learnings in your work outside this assessment, keep exploring and learning.
