Preparing Your Written
Performance Document
Whether you call is a
PRP. PAR, C.V. or Resume, the bottom line is that you will need to put your
management and leadership actions into words. These actions should be your
current and past performance as relating to the expectations at level two (supervises
a unit of work) of the
organizational responsibility within the RCMP.
Of course, if you have performance examples at level 3, detail those also.
We will discuss in more detail some tips in identifying what are "great"
examples. However, it is safe to say that you should already have a
past/current PRP from the NCO process (or a past OCP Performance Accomplishment
Report) to use as your starting point. NOTE...starting point. You
are expected to be giving high end
behavioral examples reflecting the second level of organizational
responsibility. You may want to consider also including some
"work-in-progress" examples that you have on-going right now. If you do
not have any, strongly consider making that a high priority. Here is a
case in point...my "almost" brother-in-law played NHL hockey for the New York
Rangers. He outlined in detail the continuous, huge pressure on him to
perform. His past meant nothing...all he heard was "what can you do for me
today and tomorrow". Just keep this in mind. Commissioned Officers
are expected to be leaders in the area of "proactivity". Self generating
new tasks, root problem solving with the community and enthusiastically taking
on new challenges as they arise. You will be expected to demonstrate that
you are this type of individual. If you cannot show this is "word and
deed", you are going to be behind the eight ball!
