Open communication in the Annual Interview
Pilot the Annual Interview
This week, the pilot for the Annual Interview got underway at Leiden Law School. The usual Performance & Development Interview will be replaced with an Annual Interview. With more focus on (team) cooperation, development, (personal) leadership and giving and receiving feedback, open communication is a very important skill.
At the University, we want to work towards a safe, inclusive and pleasant working environment. This means we are curious about one another, listen with an open mind, and actively work together. Of course, that’s often easier said than done.
Open communication
This is why we would like to highlight the tools, handouts and training available on Let’s connect. By developing your open communication skills, conversations with your manager, immediate colleagues, and colleagues from other teams, will lead to more connection and allow you to be successful together. Also look out for courses and webinars that are regularly scheduled in Let’s connect.
Informal walk-in sessions
If you have questions or would like to hear more information about the Annual Interview pilot, the Faculty HR department will hold informal walk-in sessions for supervisors and employees on Tuesday 8 November from 16.00 – 17.00 hrs and Thursday 10 November from 9.30 – 10.30 hrs. You can then drop by in B4.08 or call in via Teams. The HR advisors are also happy to discuss the pilot with you, so if you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact your designated HR advisor. For contact details see: HR – Leiden University.
