PDR gives reviewers the opportunity to:

• Spend time with individuals to discuss their roles, development, achievements and contributions
• Recognise achievements, contributions and review the impact of development through constructive conversations
• Prioritise and plan development needs for the individual and the department
• Ensure that their teams and reports understand agreed goals and aspirations that collectively contribute to the aims of the department and the wider University
• Hear feedback and generate suggestions for enhancing the work of the individual, team or the department
