How to Stand Out in Your First 90 Days at Work

From Emily Lago Anderson. Watch here or open it on YouTube .

During the course primer, listen for ideas that change how you approach “Receive feedback and track completed work.” Pause once to capture a useful point, then apply it while producing a feedback-to-action log with three entries and a short summary of the behavior you changed.
Before you begin

What this lesson is really solving.

Turn feedback into an observable adjustment and keep an evidence-based record of progress. This is lesson 4 because later decisions depend on a feedback-to-action log with three entries and a short summary of the behavior you changed. Feedback is useful when it names the behavior, standard, example, and next practice—not when it labels a person. Use your own numbers, files, environment, and constraints so the result survives outside the course.

Why this works

Understand the idea before touching the steps.

Feedback is useful when it names the behavior, standard, example, and next practice—not when it labels a person.

Do this

Follow these steps in order.

Take the action in each step; then use the deliverable below to prove the lesson is finished.

  1. 1

    Ask for one concrete example, the expected standard, and how you can tell the revision is working.

  2. 2

    Write the change in your own words and apply it to a fresh task or practice scenario.

  3. 3

    Log the date, task, result, feedback, and next improvement without storing confidential information.

Worked example

See the standard in context.

Jae learns that updates arrive too late, agrees on a midday checkpoint, and records two weeks of earlier notices. The learner saves a feedback-to-action log with three entries and a short summary of the behavior you changed and notes the evidence or assumption behind the choice so it can be reviewed and improved later.

Quality check

Inspect before you move on.

  • The finished work visibly includes a feedback-to-action log with three entries and a short summary of the behavior you changed.
  • You tested the work against this common failure: Defending intent or recording only praise instead of clarifying the behavior that needs to change.
  • Another person could verify this mastery standard: Each entry shows the original behavior, the standard, the adjustment, and evidence of what happened next.
