PerformYard features include:
- Platform and repository for ongoing performance communication replacing the single time per year review. We will be able to move away from a static, once-a-year review process and instead move towards a focus on ongoing, improved communication between managers and their supervisors. The system provides tools for consistently and regularly documenting conversations, feedback, goal progress, and other performance notes.
- More thorough and effective goal development and tracking. With PerformYard, you will be able to add, modify, and update goals on a continuous basis throughout the year. Additionally, you will be able to create and utilize goal checklists and input progress updates that you and the supervisors above you will have access to 24-7.
- Feedback & Recognition tool. PerformYard allows you to share feedback with any manager in the system both publicly and privately. You can also request feedback from other managers within the system.
- 360-degree feedback tool. Stockton plans to implement 360-degree feedback for managers as a professional development tool, and, with PerformYard, all feedback and performance data will be solicited and housed in one system.
