Calibrate with Your Manager

A regular calibration rhythm with your manager turns feedback into course correction while it is still cheap, rather than saving it for a review. A standing check-in you own means you never have to find a reason to ask for time, and a short account of your progress makes the conversation start from where you actually are. Asking directly what to change, rather than only reporting status, gets you correction in week three that would cost far more in month three. Acting on the feedback by the next check-in teaches your manager to keep giving it.

What Mastering Calibration Looks Like

You run a standing check-in you set up yourself, arrive with a short account of progress against your confirmed expectations, and ask directly what to change. You act on the feedback and make the change visible by the next one, and you close your ramp on a shared review of what carries into the role.
