خلفية ثقافية
The 'Bilan de compétences' is a right for employees in France. It allows them to analyze their professional and personal skills to define a career project or training plan. In Quebec, 'dresser un bilan' is used similarly to France, but you might also hear 'faire un retour' in more casual business settings influenced by English 'feedback'. In many African countries, 'dresser un bilan' is used extensively in administrative and NGO reports to justify funding and show transparency. Every year on December 31st, French news channels spend hours 'dressant le bilan' of the year's events, often categorized by politics, sports, and culture.
