Every year we have our cycle of Performance conversations, each one designed to support your career aspirations and personal development. As we approach the end of Q3, it’s time to reflect on how things are going and where we should focus over the next few months.
Our Q3 Enabling Conversation window is open from today till the 27 August for all Carnival UK shoreside colleagues and the document is available in myHR Portal from today.
