COEHD Employees and Supervisors,
As we kick off the new performance year the first step in the process is goal setting. All
employee, in conjunction with their managers, should discuss priorities for the upcoming
year and develop goals. Goals should be simplistically written and clearly define what
the employee is going to do (use SMART goal guidelines). Each employee should have between
three and seven goals, which should be strategic in nature, not daily tasks. All goals are
due to be entered in the ePerformance platform and approved by their manager by November
7, 2020. I recommend to have your employees submit their goals in the ePerformance
platform by October 30th so managers will then have through November 7th to review and
approve the goals in the system to meet the university deadline.
There are several tools and resources available on the Performance Management webpage that
explain the information on the new process. I would recommend each leader review these to
ensure they understand the process and help guide their employee's along the way.
* Facilitator lead Performance management training sessions for employees and
managers. You can sign up

(Course title: Introduction to Performance Management at UTSA <SD 640>). Dates for
upcoming training is on the website. The PowerPoint of the "live" training will
be available on the website at the end of this week and a video recording of one of the
sessions that we have conducted will be available on the website by the end of October.
* Class highlight videos to help give a great overview and snapshot of each
process (they are about 8-12 min). One of the videos covers an overview of performance
management, one is about SMART goals and the last one is on navigating the ePerformance
platform in PeopleSoft.
* Learning Guides and Job aids are available too. The first 4 job aids are for any
employee. There are 5 job aids for managers/supervisors.
