Launch a Performance Review

Your Admin (or HR) can grant you - a Manager - authorization to launch a Performance Review only when they share a Review Template with Managers. Please check with them for further details.

Note that Managers can only launch Org Chart based (i.e. reviews based on the reporting lines) performance reviews.

Step 1: Select Template

  1. Navigate to Performance > Team Review

  2. Click + Launch Review to start. At this step, you can also view the templates shared with you by clicking on View Template

  3. Give it a name, set a review period, and select a review template. You can also view available templates at this step

  4. Click Next

Step 2: Select Employees

  1. Select moderator(s) (optional)

    A moderator will be a person who can calibrate the manager review. This is a new role available beginning from the April release.

  2. Pick out the Reviewees

    • All Employees: all employees are required to participate. If you want to exclude an employee, please add them in the Except Employees box

    • Specific Employees: only chosen employees will participate in the review

  3. Click Next when finishing

Step 3: Set Timeline

  1. Select the review period of each component:

    • Self Review: Employees perform their own self-assessments

    • Manager Review: Managers assess employees and provide summaries

    • Peer selection: Managers select who can give peer reviews* (🌟new feature)

    • Peer Review: Selected employees review their peers (🌟new feature)

  2. Click Launch and review the timeline

  3. Click Confirm to start

After a performance review is launched, the selected participants will receive email notifications on the start dates to complete the review.

💡 Tips:

  • The performance review will begin on the earliest start date and end on the latest due date, depending on the timeline of components (Self Review, Manager Review, Peer Review).

    Example:

    • The Self Review schedules to start on 20 Sep 2021 and end on 25 Sep 2021

    • The Manager Review schedules to start on 20 Sep 2021 and end on 30 Sep 2021

    => Performance Review will begin on 20 Sep 2021 and end on 30 Sep 2021.
