The performance management process at Teachers College includes setting goals and clear expectations, providing meaningful feedback and ongoing coaching, self-assessment by the staff member, and performance discussions mid-year and year-end.

Regular and meaningful discussions between supervisors and employees throughout the year lead to stronger performance, better communication and engaged staff. 

• The first stage of the performance management process is setting clear, measurable and achievable goals. This stage should also include the formation of a personal professional development plan.
• The second stage of the process is the mid-year performance discussion to review progress toward goals, discuss any changes in priorities or support staff may need to achieve their goals.
• The third stage is the year-end performance management discussion which is designed to provide clear feedback about the employee performance measured against the set goals.

While it is important to follow the three stages of the process, an equally important part is to continuously check-in with staff and incorporate more informal, ongoing feedback conversations throughout the year. Regular and candid feedback can help create a culture where employees feel comfortable having an open dialog and seeking help and guidance.
