This article explains how to proactively give feedback in Personio using the Continuous feedback feature.
What is Continuous feedback in Personio?
The Continuous feedback feature allows all employees in your organization to send and receive feedback at any time, and outside of performance review cycles.
This functionality can help foster collaboration, improve employee recognition, and drive employee growth through constant communication.
Draft your feedback
To draft feedback for an employee in your organization, follow these steps:
- Navigate to Performance & Development > Feedback.
- On the upper right, click Give feedback.
- The feedback dialog box opens. Under Who's the feedback for?, click the drop-down menu and select the employee you want to give feedback to. Click Continue.
- The feedback draft page opens. Under What’s your feedback?*, write your feedback.
You now have three options. You can discard your draft, save it for later, or send it.
Option 1: Discard your draft
To discard your draft, click Discard draft on the upper right. A message appears asking to confirm your choice. Click Discard draft.
Option 2: Save your draft for later
To save your progress and continue at a later stage, click Save for later. Personio will save your draft in Performance & Development > Feedback, under the To-do tab.
Tip Personio saves your draft automatically every few keystrokes. If you accidentally close your browser, you will still be able to access your latest draft under the To-do tab.
Option 3: Send your feedback
To send the feedback, click Give feedback. You also have the option to tick the box Share feedback with the employee's supervisor.
Note You cannot edit your continuous feedback after it is sent.
The receiver will be able to access your feedback in Performance & Development > Feedback, under the About me tab. They will also receive an email notification containing a link to the feedback.
If you shared your feedback with the employee's supervisor, they will be able to view it under Performance & Development > Feedback by selecting the relevant employee from the list on the left.
