Step 3: The 'Review Panel' for the employee should appear, locate the nomination section and click 'Nominate'

Step 4: The ‘Nomination Panel’ should appear, pick one of Mesh suggested colleagues or search for someone to nominate

Incase your review has specific categories of peers you can search and add in the respective sections

Step 5: Your nominated peers will be notified and can start their reviews once they accept the nomination.

Peer categories

The admin in your organisation can set rules for peer nominations, such as requiring a minimum or maximum number of nominations and mandating nominations across different categories:

Leadership: Nominate colleagues who are above your level in the organization tree. This category recognises those who provide strategic direction and guidance.
Direct Team: Nominate peers who work directly with you in your team. This category acknowledges teamwork and collaboration within your immediate work environment.
Internal Stakeholders: Nominate colleagues who are not part of your direct team but have a significant impact on your work, such as cross-functional collaborators. This category appreciates collaboration across different departments or teams.
Team Peers: Nominate peers from various teams within your organization. This category emphasizes networking and recognizing contributions from a diverse set of colleagues.

These categories help ensure a comprehensive and balanced approach to peer nominations, highlighting different aspects of collaboration and leadership within the organization.

Notification

When a nomination, peer or dotted line manager, is made the nominee is notified of the action. This happens across channels on-platform (Bell Notification) and off-platform (Email, Slack/MS Teams).
