Editor's Notes

  • #4 1. Each Leader needs to determine who will be their raters. They do this by compiling a list of peers ( those they work with closely ) and cross team partners ( and those that work with a regular basis) When they have the list, they need to discuss with their Manager who will finalise their list. Then they advise L&D as of this list who will upload to our assessment tool, called Qualtrics. 2. During the specified time, each Leader will get an update of who has completed the evaluation. L&D will send reminders emails to those who have not completed the evaluations and each Leader can also send an email to prompt completion 3. When the specified time – in this case `xx, has arrived each Leader will meet with a coach who will guide them through the report so they can start their Leadership Development plan. They will also meet with the coach on a second and final occasion to complete the Leadership Development Plan.
