Performance Management & Development System (PMDS)
PMDS provides an opportunity to create and deliver on a shared vision for the University with the engagement of all staff. It is an opportunity for managers and staff to work together to clarify the University’s strategic objectives and the team development plan and to identify the role each staff member plays in delivering these objectives.
PMDS also supports staff and managers to work together to review the staff member’s achievements against previously agreed goals and objectives. It is an important opportunity for managers to acknowledge past achievements and successes, to identify areas where staff members need support, and to agree goals and a training and development plan for the coming year.
