Performance development
Full Time Continuing Employees
The performance development cycle includes the collaborative stages involved in the process of planning, monitoring, and reviewing performance. The process is centred on setting goals that are aligned with the strategic objectives of the organization.
Performance development conversations are an opportunity for employees and managers to step back from day-to-day tasks and duties to examine and discuss past accomplishments and set clear goals for the future. As performance relates to ‘ SMARTER goals’, we take the time to evaluate how we’ve achieved the objectives we established for ourselves. It’s an opportunity to understand how to improve, celebrate what’s been accomplished, and think about how we can develop professionally in future.
If you are a manager and you would like someone to visit your team and provide additional training or performance development programming support, contact performance@ontariotechu.ca with your request.

Performance development Cycle for Limited-Term Employees
Performance Development for Limited-Term employees is not mandatory. Many employees and managers enjoy having a process to follow and forms to use to guide discussions about professional development. The following forms have been developed to assist with performance development discussions with limited-term staff. The forms are intended to support staff and managers in rich dialogue about the past year’s successes and to identify where processes can be streamlined in an effort toward continuous improvement.
The forms as a discussion tool provide an excellent opportunity for managers to recognize the achievements and impacts of the work performed by their employees.
