Your Voice Matters: Supporting managers
16 Apr 2025
Improving our hub of essential resources for managers
Emma Beard, Employment Services Officer, discusses the new ‘Manager Essentials’ hub on StaffNet.
Feedback on our ‘Manager Essentials’ pages enabled us to make improvements to the accessibility and quality of information available to managers.
Emma discusses the new guidance in place for the employee lifecycle from recruitment to leaving the University and a new managers checklist for new managers.
Feedback also prompted improvements to the layout and navigation of ‘Manager Essentials’ to bring all their guidance and resources into a single accessible place.
New topics such as IT access and wellbeing were added to the homepage, having previously not featured on the hub.
Finally, all content and links were brought up to date thanks to continuous feedback from colleagues.
Watch the full video to hear more about improvements to the ‘Manager Essentials’ based on colleague feedback.
