Excelling at Manchester

Building on the foundations of Performing at Manchester, Excelling at Manchester is our evolved approach to performance and development reviews (PDRs) at the University, placing meaningful conversations at the heart of colleague growth and success.

Replacing the annual review, it creates regular opportunities for colleagues and managers to agree priorities, support development, recognise achievements and reflect on progress.

Through four focused conversations each year, it helps colleagues connect their individual contribution to the wider ambitions of Manchester 2035:

  • Goals (September to November)
  • Career Conversations (December to February)
  • Developing Yourself and Talent Succession (March to May)
  • Review and Evaluate (June to August)
