Performance and Development Review survey launching soon

As part of our university-wide initiative to review and redesign the Performance Development Review (PDR) process, we're launching a stakeholder survey to gather insights from across the University. This is a crucial step in shaping a new process that works better for everyone, and your role as a manager is key to ensuring we gather meaningful feedback from your team.

Why It Matters

The PDR process is a cornerstone of how we support our colleagues' growth and align our efforts with the University's goals. To build a process that truly works, we need input from all perspectives. This is your opportunity to ensure your team's voice is heard and to help re-design a system that's fair, effective, and future-focused.

How You Can Help

We need your support to encourage participation within your team and across the organisation. Here's how you can make an impact:

• Discuss the Survey with Your Team: Talk about its importance during your next team meeting or in 1:1 discussions.
• Allocate Time for Participation: Consider providing a scheduled time for colleagues to complete the survey - perhaps as part of a weekly team meeting.
• Lead by Example: Fill out the survey yourself and share your experience with your team.

What to Expect

• The survey will launch in early February and will remain open until 21 February.
• It will take less than 10 minutes to complete, and all responses will remain confidential.
• We'll share an overall summary of insights and next steps once the feedback is analysed.

Together, we can build a process that supports growth, development, and collaboration across the institution. Thank you for your leadership and support in making this a success!
