Performance Review
Janine Ogboyanna’s Career Transformation
A performance review can make or break a career—and for Janine Ogboyanna in Sports Marketing + Partnerships in Eatontown, NJ, a poor performance review threatened everything she’d worked to build. At a pivotal moment in her career as a mid-level manager at a top consulting agency, that devastating performance review threatened her position and shook her professional confidence to its core. She was lucky enough to get the chance to work with Dr. Ceruto, whose expert career guidance became her lifeline and transformed that crisis into a launching pad for remarkable success.
The Challenge: When Performance Review Threatens Your Career
The performance review hit Janine like a freight train. Despite her talent, dedication, and ambition, the feedback was harsh: procrastination was undermining her deliverables, her mental organization was chaotic, and her task prioritization skills were inadequate for her management level. Her position at the top consulting agency—the career she’d worked so hard to build—was genuinely at risk.
The worst part wasn’t just the poor performance review itself; it was the realization that the criticisms were accurate. Janine was struggling with procrastination. She did feel mentally disorganized. Her task prioritization was inconsistent. But knowing these problems and fixing them were entirely different challenges.
She felt paralyzed. How do you transform ingrained behavioral patterns under the pressure of potentially losing your job? How do you overcome procrastination when the stakes have never been higher? How do you rebuild confidence when a performance review has shattered your professional self-image?
Without expert intervention, Janine feared the next performance review would be her last.
