Subject: [all-staff] Message from the Principal : Launch of this year's ADR
process
Sent on behalf of the Principal
Dear Colleagues,
I am e-mailing to confirm that the ADR process for 2015 has now commenced.
The ADR process is critical to our continued success as a leading
international technological University. It has my full commitment because
of the significant organisational and personal benefits which come from
staff having clear feedback on their performance and a constructive and
supportive dialogue with a reviewing officer.
The undernoted details from the Director of HR should be noted carefully. I
would ask each of you to ensure that you complete your ADR discussion, with
associated documentation, within the timeline indicated. Whilst the ADR
form is important and must be fully completed by all University staff, the
one-to-one discussion is most critical and the forms should be concise and
focused. The timetable below has started with my own ADR discussion,
emphasising my personal commitment to the process and the importance of ADR
as a strategic tool for the cascading of organisational objectives.
Best wishes,
Jim
Professor Sir Jim McDonald
Principal and Vice-Chancellor

Message from Sandra Heidinger, Director of Human Resources
I am pleased to confirm the launch of this year's ADR process. This year,
your ADR discussion will look back over the period since August 2014 with
forward objectives then being set to cover 1st August 2015 - 31st July 2016.
The ADR process has three parts, focussed around a discussion between each
member of staff and an appropriate reviewer:-
. a look back at performance during the previous year, focusing on
objectives set as part of last year's discussion;
. setting of objectives for the forthcoming year (covering 1st
August 2015 - 31st July 2016);
. discussion about any development needs linked to those objectives.
A range of <http://www.strath.ac.uk/hr/adr/> ADR supporting documentation
is available on the HR website. As well as comprehensive guidance documents
available to download there are summary webpages available for those looking
for a reminder of the process.
In advance of a forthcoming meeting with your Reviewer, you should draft
your ADR form accessed through <https://ben.mis.strath.ac.uk/login/>
PEGASUS (click on the Human Resources tab then on 2014 Review Period). Your
one-to-one discussion with your reviewer will start with a look back over
the period since August 2014; objectives set last year will be brought
forward automatically into your new form and you should comment on progress
against each objective prior to your review discussion.
ADR discussions for all staff will take place during April, May and June
and early July, with all forms requiring to be fully concluded by the end of
July. The undernoted timetable has been developed, commencing with the
Principal to ensure that ADR enables the cascading of our strategic
objectives:

* Professorial staff should note the
<http://www.strath.ac.uk/hr/policiesandprocedures/sard/> full timetable and
policy for the Senior Academic Review and Development (SARD) process.
Whilst no specific University level timetable has been set for staff below
professorial level, each Head of Department/School will establish their own
timetable in keeping with the overall deadline of 31 July 2015. The ADRs of
more senior staff with management responsibilities will be conducted first
with the ADRs of direct reports to these individuals carried out next and so
on. Heads of Department/School will inform you of the timetable which will
apply within your area but you should aim to draft your ADR form and to send
it to your reviewer a week before the scheduled one-to-one meeting. In
order to complete the online form, you will need to know who will be
conducting the review discussion with you. This information may already be
known to you but, if you are unsure, please ask your Head of
Department/School to confirm who will be your reviewer for the ADR process.
Academic and Research staff who use PURE do not need to re-enter data held
in PURE to the ADR system. Rather, individual PURE users can create a
'summary report' from PURE which pulls out their data for the year and this
document can be uploaded to the ADR system as an attachment. Your comments
on contribution and achievement since August 2014 will then be a short
commentary on the PURE information, rather than a record of the activity
itself.
Training on ADR for both staff members and reviewers remains available and
can be accessed via the <http://bookings.strath.ac.uk/> online booking
service or via the Organisational and Staff Development Unit on extension
4332.
For further information on ADR, please contact the HR Team for your area.
Best wishes
