This fillable template helps facilitate conversations between employees and their managers regarding role-related expectations. 

Managers and employees collaborate to complete the Expectations Alignment Tool during onboarding, project kickoffs, and any other situation where the employee is acclimating to a new constellation of tasks. 

Concretely, clearly, and concisely communicating expectations when candidates acclimate to new tasks/roles minimizes the risk of productivity loss and miscommunication. 

First, the employee provides their understanding of current and ongoing tasks for which they are responsible. From there, managers offer structured feedback and additional context toward achieving alignment.
