Peer nominations let you identify colleagues to review your performance. Once submitted, your manager approves or denies each nomination before peers receive a review request.
Before You Begin
- Your review cycle must have peer reviews enabled. Check your Peer nominations tab — if it is not visible, peer nominations are not part of your cycle.
- You can nominate peers up until the cycle's end date or until your results are finalized, whichever comes first.
Steps
- Go to Reviews in the left navigation.
- Select your review cycle.
- Select the Peer nominations tab.
- Click into the Peers for your review field and start typing a name.
- Select the person's name from the dropdown menu.
- Repeat steps 4–5 for each additional peer you want to nominate.
- Click Submit to send your nominations to your manager for approval.
> You cannot nominate someone who: > - Is already assigned to review you > - Has already been nominated as your peer > - Is globally excluded from reviews in Best-Self Review® > > If you are unsure whether someone is globally excluded, contact your account admin.
After submission, your manager, a review admin, or a cycle collaborator reviews and approves or declines each nomination. Approved peers then receive a request to accept or decline.
Revisit the Peer nominations tab before the nomination deadline to confirm all required nominations have been accepted.
