It's time for mid-year performance discussions

As a reminder, we have entered the development phase of ITS’s Performance Management cycle, including conducting a mid-year performance review.

Be sure to complete mid-year performance reviews for ITS M&P and C&T staff on or before Friday, January 13, 2023. While not required for the mid-year performance review, we encourage M&P team members to use the ITS M&P Performance Management form, C&T team members and their managers should use the C&T Performance Feedback form.

For a mid-year feedback discussion to be constructive and meaningful, it should be actionable. You and your manager are encouraged to do the following during your discussion:

• Review specific goals and required competencies
• Recognize accomplishments to date and reinforce the path to achieving goals
• Discuss what is or isn’t working and what support/resources are needed to deliver expectations
• Where applicable, adjust goals based on changing priorities and circumstances
• Identify priorities for the rest of the year
• Identify and eliminate potential roadblocks to achieving stated goals
• Identify development opportunities for the employee

Conducting a mid-year review allows you and your supervisor a formal opportunity to check-in and provide meaningful feedback on your work and accomplishments to date. It also serves to develop and enhance working relationships and contribute to your professional development.
