Fundamental Resources
Here are some company resources you’ll need to be successful as a manager at 37signals. This playbook refers back to these resources in later chapters.
37signals Employee Handbook
Everything you need to know about 37signals company policies is in the handbook. This is the general handbook for all staff.
Designers, Ops, Programmers, QA, & Customer Support Career Progression Frameworks
These are the frameworks you use to assess the job performance of your report. You also use these to measure whether your report is performing at a higher level and is promotable. Each job function has its own model, and each job is organized by seniority levels. Every framework outlines the Skills, Engagement, and Coachability expected at each level. The performance review you complete annually for your report mirrors these frameworks. You should also refer to these throughout the year to complete quick, high-level performance assessment scans.
For Performance Reviews: Manager Review Forms and Employee Self-Reflection Forms
These are reference copies. You and your report will be assigned Jotform surveys when it’s time for performance reviews.
