Annual Review of the President

NIPISSING UNIVERSITY BOARD OF GOVERNORS
STEPS/PROCESS FOR THE ANNUAL REVIEW OF THE PRESIDENT
 
The President’s Annual Review Committee will be made up of the Chair of the Board, the Vice-Chair, the Vice-Chair Pro Tem and the Chair of the Human Resources Committee.  The committee’s mandate will be to review the achievements and seek feedback on the performance of the President as well as help set the President’s priorities for the coming year.
  1. Late June:  The Chair, Vice-Chair, Vice-Chair Pro Tem and the President will meet to discuss and reach agreement about the priorities for the year to come.  (Goals & Priorities Set)
     
  2. September: The President will address the Senate and the Board and outline the goals and anticipated activities for the year ahead in a way that reflects the priorities discussed and agreed upon by the Annual Review Committee.  The Human Resources Committee will review the President’s Review Questions annually and revise if necessary.
     
  3. Early March:  The Chair of the Board will ask the President to reflect on the priorities set for the current year and to make a written submission to the Annual Review Committee by May 1.  The submission should also outline preliminary thoughts on the President's priorities for the next year.
     
  4. February Board Meeting:  The Chair of the Board will inform Board members during closed session of the Board that the annual review of the President is scheduled for May.  The Chair will provide a reminder of the priorities previously set for this annual review and will review the President’s Review Questions.  The President’s Review Questions will be distributed to Board members and will form the basis for either oral or written feedback.  All members of the Board will be invited to respond to the Review Questions in writing, in confidence, to the Chair, prior to May 1.  In addition a member of the Annual Review Committee will meet with the Board members from each of their constituency groups (Faculty, Officers of the Board, Admin. and Support, Students, Alumni, Aboriginal and Executive Committee (external)) to discuss the President’s performance using the Review Questions as a basis for the feedback.  These meetings will take place before May 1 and it will be each Board member’s responsibility to solicit feedback from their constituency groups prior to their meeting with the Annual Review Committee, if necessary.  All feedback will be without attribution, and will be shared with the President during the review process.
     
  5. Early May:  The Annual Review Committee and President will meet in camera to review the comments from Board members, the President's written submission, and the suggested priorities for the upcoming year.
     
  6. May Executive Committee: The Chair will present to the Executive Committee a summary of the Annual Review Committee’s discussions with the President. The President will be asked to comment on his written submission and to discuss suggested priorities for the coming year. The President will be informed, in a letter from the Board Chair, of the conclusions of the Committee.
     
  7. June Board Meeting:  In closed session, the President will be asked to leave the meeting and the Board Chair will report to the Board on the Annual Review Committee’s assessment of the President's achievements and performance during the previous year.  After the discussion, the President will be invited back to the meeting.  To begin the process of setting priorities for the next year, all Board members will be asked to provide their views on areas of focus
