Monmouth University’s approach to performance management emphasizes continuous learning and professional growth while aligning institutional needs with employee skills and interests. Through “Performance Conversations,” managers and employees can maintain structured and ongoing communication designed to clarify expectations, set objectives, provide feedback, and review results. Our approach prioritizes a collaborative and transparent process that supports employee development and organizational objectives.
The online performance review system, PERFORM, aims to streamline the documentation and sharing of feedback. Employees can access PERFORM through the Core UKG system, navigating to the Talent Management Section and selecting the Talent Dashboard.
Evaluation Process Overview:
- Manager Assessment Notification: Supervisors (Manager I) with direct reports receive a system-generated email notification from UKG to initiate the evaluation process.
- Completion of Competency Section: The supervisor completes the competency section by selecting the most appropriate rating for each competency.
- Forwarding Evaluation for Approval: Once the competency section is completed, the supervisor forwards the evaluation to the next-level supervisor (Manager II) for approval.
- Review and Approval by Manager II: Manager II reviews the evaluation and can either move it forward to Human Resources if in agreement or request revisions by returning it to the Supervisor. Any messages to the Supervisor should be recorded in the “Overall Comments” section.
- Review by Human Resources: Human Resources reviews the evaluation and routes it back to the supervisor after their assessment.
- Acknowledgement and Finalization: Supervisors/Manager I must acknowledge the review by selecting “Sign and Complete.” Once this step is completed, no further modifications can be made to the evaluation.
Additional resources, such as a user guide and instructional video, are available for further guidance on navigating the evaluation process.
