  1. IntroducingSUPPORTING OUR STAFF The ANU Performance Management Framework

  2. Background Performance management is not a new concept for ANU • creating relationships and ensuring effective communication • focussing on what ANU, Colleges, supervisors and employees need to succeed

  3. Managing Performance at ANU Two systems have been running in ANU for some time: • Career & Performance Development Scheme (CPDS) for general staff; and • Rewarding, Enhancing and Managing Academic Staff Performance for academic staff

  4. Supporting our Staff • replaces the current performance management systems • harmonises the process, language and forms • Eg Performance Plan  Statement of Expectations • updated policy, procedures, guidelines and forms on web

  5. Supporting our Staff The essential elements of performance management are maintained in the framework – • Setting personal expectations for each staff member • Reviewing contribution against these expectations • Career and personal development

  6. Supporting our Staff There are several differences between the academic and general staff process:

  7. Performance Management: An Integral Part of the ANU Planning Cycle ‘ANU by 2010’ College/Division Plan Branch/School Plan Your Manager’s Statement of Expectations Your Statement of Expectations

  8. Supporting our Staff • “Our greatest defence is the quality of our work” (VC, ANU Retreat Feb’08) • all staff are required to have an agreed Statement of Expectations, consistent with the short and long term priorities of the ANU • this should be developed and reviewed in consultation with the supervisor

  9. Email 25/2/08 to Deans, Directors, College GM and HRMs Dear Colleagues At our recent retreat, I reiterated my expectation that all staff should have a Statement of Expectations agreement in place. As the next 2 year performance cycle for academics is due in 2008, it is time to ensure that academic staff performance reviews are underway, and that new Statements of Expectations for this two year cycle are being prepared. This is an important process that ensures that effort is directed at our goals and provides a useful framework for providing regular feedback to our staff. Best wishes, Ian Vice-Chancellor
