Annual Review

Some significant changes are coming to the Performance Evaluation, now called "Annual Review." The most notable difference is that the Missionary now has a central role in the Annual Review. They will initially complete a Missionary Input tab, which allows them to do a self-assessment on their performance of MTD, Ministry Duties, Ministry Skills, and Character. They will also share their accomplishments over the past year and goals for the following year.

The new Annual Review can be tailored to the job role. Like the previous version, the Missionary will add five to seven of their most significant ministry duties to the Review. However, then they can now select five ministry skills from a list (or add skills not on the list) that are most necessary for their role and complete a self-assessment on those skills.

The rating scales have also been changed on the new Annual Review to more simplified language.

    Missionary Staff Level Updates

    The titles and descriptions for Missionary Staff Levels have been updated for 2022.

    typing your name at the bottom of the document and adding a comment that says Completed.


    Job Description Template

    If you or the person you supervise does not have an updated Job Description that has been shared with Reliant, please go to Job Descriptions to create and submit a new one

    The salary ranges will also transfer over. (E.g., Missionary Staff 2 range will be the same as the Level 2 range for 2022.)

    Supervisors, as part of the Annual Review, you will be asked if you would like to update the Staff Level for the Missionary. Please make sure that you take some time to review the new Missionary Staff Levels and follow the instructions on the Annual Review for notifying Reliant that you'd like to make a change. Please reach out to your Program Team (What Program Team Am I On?) if you have any questions. 

    Job Description Template

    In addition, Reliant will be transitioning to a new process to maintain Job Descriptions for all Missionaries and Associates. You can find more details about the transition here (Missionary Job Description Process). While it is not mandatory to update your Job Description during the Annual Review season, it may make sense to do it now as you will be asked to refer to your Job Description as part of the Missionary Employee Input stage of the Annual Review.
