Perform - Create a development activity (personal goal) for a team member

In this article, we'll show how to set a Development activity for a team member. They're a great way to focus a team member on personal goals that may not be directly linked to role objectives.

A few things to know about Development activities:

• Managers can create Development activities for their direct reports only
• Team members can also create Development activities for themselves
• Managers and team members can add comments and attach evidence to a Development activity
• Managers and team members can move the progress slider
• A summary of Development activities can be added to a review form

Each time a change is made to a Development activity, the other person can be sent a notification to let them know.
