Is there a difference between performance goals and development plans?
Yes, there is a difference. Performance goals are the results you wish to achieve within your current or future position and development plans target how you want to grow and develop in your career. This difference is covered in the core FOCUS classes, “Goal Setting and Feedback for Supervisors” and “Goal Setting and Feedback for Non-Supervisors.” In addition, Organizational Development and Learning offers classes on “Coaching for Development” and “Coaching for Performance”.
