My Dialogues

Aalto's people talking regularly about wellbeing, development and goals is how we achieve Aalto's strategic goals.

At Aalto, My Dialogues is about having a 1-1 conversation with your supervisor, or a 3-way conversation with your direct and matrix supervisors, twice per year (spring and autumn) about these 3 topics – wellbeing, development and goals.

You can utilise the Workday system to help you set work and personal development goals, make notes and attach documents you want to discuss, and give and ask for feedback from colleagues.
