myPDCA is a new system for Assessing Performance and Setting Individual Goals and Professional Growth Plans.

By implementing a new performance feedback process we hope to improve two of the five areas that received the lowest scores on our 2012 Employee Engagement Survey:

  • Performance evaluation process helps me improve my job performance (52.4%)
  • I have career discussions with my supervisor (54.9%)
  • The form is cumbersome; time consuming
  • Ranking core competencies every year is a waste of time
  • Nothing is done with the information; it’s a meaningless exercise
  • We need to tie this to A-3, operational goals and projects
    • We need clear, measurable goals

As you may recall, your feedback on our former system:

The Performance Review Team was created. They listened to concerns and drafted a new process, based on NMC’s model for continuous improvement, that fit our aligned planning model. The new process emphasizes the ongoing conversation between supervisor and employee – focused on goals. The team wanted to provide some guidelines, but leave the process flexible enough to allow for the unique needs of each department.

As with our former system, you and your supervisor will each prepare for your annual review/goal setting session by reflecting on the past year and thinking about next year’s goals. Then you will meet to compare thinking and develop a clear plan with SMART (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, and Timely) goals!  You will enter and manage your goals using our new Performance Management system, WingSpan.
Coming soon:
