A reminder that the annual Personal Appraisal and Development season runs through to the end of November.
Please make sure you complete your Appraisal by this time. Completing an Appraisal is mandatory unless you are on probation. Clinical academics will have a joint appraisal through the NHS system with a Queen Mary manager.
It is important that we find the time to have good quality conversations to celebrate our achievements, acknowledge the challenges we have faced, and consider ways we can support each other to do our best work. These Appraisal conversations are an opportunity for you to reflect, think about your development and what you aim to achieve in your role over the coming year. It’s also a chance to work with your manager to identify what support you might need to reach your goals.
Discussions around development are an important part of the Appraisal process. If you are an appraiser/manager, please make time for discussions around development. There’s guidance available on how to have these discussions on the website.
Access the Appraisal system and further guidance on the Appraisal pages. If you have any questions, you can book time with an Organisational and Professional Development advisor or email OPD@qmul.ac.uk.
