Personal Development Plans

I’m building an annual development planning cycle in Personio and have already created a Development Plan form. The goal here is focused on employee growth, skills development, and learning priorities — not performance evaluation.

From what I can see, the only way to roll this out in Personio is through the Performance module as part of a Performance Review Cycle. Is that actually the intended approach, or is there a cleaner / more suitable way to run annual development plans separately from performance reviews?

We recently ran a pilot, and participants found it confusing because they were effectively being asked to complete what looked like a performance review cycle, even though the focus was development planning rather than performance evaluation.

Hi ​@BTE ,

 

Thanks for your question! I’m the Product lead for Performance & Development, and thought I’d jump in here. The short answer is that we don’t have a dedicated development plan solution today, however it’s something our team is actively exploring. Would you be interested in chatting with our team about this? If so, feel free to message me at camille.merritt@personio.de and we can set something up.

 

Thanks,

Camille
