Performance Management

We are midway through the academic year, and FY25 Mid-Year Performance and Development Conversations are an ideal opportunity to reflect on accomplishments, discuss progress on work and development goals, and determine where additional guidance and support may be needed.  

While mid-year conversations are optional, they can help clarify expectations, enhance accountability and performance, boost engagement, and empower employees to reach their potential. Meaningful manager-employee conversations also support both organizational and team morale and provide a sense of continuity and forward progress.  

To support you with mid-year conversations, we recommend that you review the resources below. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to a member of the Human Resources Team. Thank you for your ongoing efforts in this process! 

RESOURCES AND GUIDES BY TOPIC:

FY25 Year-End Performance and Development Conversations

The process for FY25 Year-End Performance and Development Conversations will begin in May. We hope these conversations will provide you with an opportunity to reflect on your progress during the past year, and to look toward the future. Our performance and development conversation process for FY25 will be similar to last year.

Key considerations for FY25 approach are: 

  • Managers will schedule and conduct year-end conversations with their direct reports. 

  • There will be no ratings in FY25. 

  • We will not use Peoplesoft this year. 

  • Managers will document the reflections and intentions discussed in the year-end conversation using an editable pdf Performance and Development Conversation Form. 

Instructions for employees to complete the Performance and Development Conversation Form: 

  1. Employees will receive the form from their manager. Please review the form. While you are not required to complete a self-evaluation, you may add comments. 

  1. After reviewing the form, please acknowledge receipt of the form and include your name and date. 

  1. Send the completed form back to your manager. 

Meaningful manager-employee conversations are critical drivers for employee engagement. They also support both organizational and team morale and provide a sense of continuity and forward progress. This is an opportunity to build upon conversations between managers and employees to reflect on all that has been accomplished, both individually and collectively, throughout the academic year. 

Employees hired on or after April 1st will not have an annual review for FY25. Instead, managers should complete the 90-Day Review Form provided by HR around the 2-month mark.
