Wait, are we really saying to exclude everyone from the process?

Assessment reports should be unbiased, so no involvement makes sense.

I remember reading that involving personnel can lead to bias, but I also see the value in getting their input. It's a tough call!

I'm a bit unsure about this one. I feel like confirming observations could help avoid mistakes, but does that mean we should involve them?

I recall a practice question that emphasized the need for objectivity in reports, so maybe we shouldn't involve them directly?

I think it's important to involve those being assessed to get their perspective, but I can't remember if that's always the case.

What is this, the Spanish Inquisition? I vote for option C: Involve the assessed, but don't let them see the report until it's finalized. Keeps everyone on their toes!
