Dear staff and A&P faculty,

Between June 1 and Sept. 30 of last year, staff and many A&P faculty completed the annual evaluation process using the Lead@UVa online performance management system, with schools and units establishing their own internal deadlines within that time period. We are now approaching the halfway mark of the 2011-12 performance cycle, an appropriate time for the interim performance review.

The mid-year evaluation is a great time for a formal check-in to revisit goals, competencies and the career development plan. This process does not affect employees’ pay or establish performance ratings, but it gives employees and their supervisors a chance to reconnect on the plans made together. It also makes it easier to keep up with progress and accomplishments, rather than trying to remember them all at the end of the year.

Below are some helpful links for conducting an interim review, including a self-evaluation:

The Performance Management page (suggested timelines and more - please check with your school/unit for its timeline)

The Performance Management Toolkit (tips on self-evaluation and more on the performance management at U.Va.) Our HR home page (choose the LEAD@UVa button)
