The following action items came from the ITS: Survey Team of Angie Bardsley, Weston Taylor, Dan Raney, Janet Martino, and Jim Grey and are based on the survey the ITS: Division took in September 2016.
Quarterly Annual Review Meetings
Supervisors and their direct reports meet quarterly to touch base on annual goals, opportunities for professional development, accomplishments and/or challenges.
- Begin during the current review process.
- At the evaluation meeting this spring, the direct report and supervisor pick a date and time for their first quarterly touch base meeting.
- The direct report sends the meeting invites for each quarterly meeting.
- Prior to these touch base meetings, the direct report sends her/his supervisor an update email that includes accomplishments, project updates, goal updates, opportunities for professional development, etc.
- At each touch base meeting, the direct report and supervisor schedule the next quarterly meeting.
Team Building Activities for Individual Departments
- Beginning this summer, instead of the July Lunchtime Lunacy, departments will hold their first activity.
- Together team members choose and plan the event. While the activity ideas are generated by the team members, supervisors, as part of the team, are invited to the event.
- Departments hold activities two or three times a year.
- A p-card should be used to pay for the activities.
- Teams are encouraged to submit a group photo to be shared on the ITS: blog or internal update.
- Please see one of the survey team members for activity suggestions.
Thanks to Survey Team for their efforts!
