By U. of Pennsylvania - The University of Pennsylvania is committed to staff development and believes that the performance appraisal and planning process is an integral part of that development. This process is designed to improve job understanding, promote more effective job performance, and establish future goals for career growth. The goal of the Performance and Staff Development Program is to provide staff members with feedback on their performance and accomplishments for the previous year. This program should also assist staff members in understanding their job responsibilities and supervisor's performance expectations. Performance goals for the upcoming year and specific plans to help staff members meet those goals should also be established through this process. (Added: 24-Oct-2010 Hits: 219 )

By U. of Pennsylvania - Effective managers and supervisors provide frequent guidance, coaching and feedback to their staff throughout the year on job duties and responsibilities, performance goals and expectations, progress at meeting goals and performance areas to be developed. At least once a year, you should summarize these discussions in writing using the Performance and Staff Development Plan (Performance Plan).  A short form, letter, or memorandum from you to the staff member can also be used, in lieu of the Performance Plan, to summarize your performance feedback. This guidebook is designed to assist University of Pennsylvania managers, supervisors and faculty in preparing the Performance and Staff Development Plan.  This guidebook will also assist you in identifying important points that should be considered and included in your performance and staff development discussion with the staff member.
