Training to Manage Performance and Motivate Employees to Continue Developing Their Skills

 

Learn how to make appraisals and coaching work as an effective part of the performance management process to motivate employees and improve performance. This 1-day onsite performance management seminar is customized to work effectively with your performance management and appraisal system.

Make performance appraisals fair and meaningful
Most managers and supervisors are uncomfortable conducting performance appraisal discussions. Only a few feel confident in their ability to accurately assess the performance of their employees. This course helps managers effectively deal with the most common–and most difficult–challenges in using the performance appraisal system. Knowing how to give honest performance evaluation feedback and use the appraisal system as a communication and motivational performance management tool will improve employee performance.

Keep appraisals legal
Using the techniques developed in this program, managers will enhance their coaching skills and practice methods to effectively document and support any rating. They learn how to avoid evaluation mistakes that can lead to feeling of unfairness, arguments, decreased morale and even lawsuits. This program shows managers how to deliver even the most difficult performance reviews and appraisals effectively.

Save time with effective performance management processes
This training reveals the best practices to reduce the time spent in preparing meaningful and productive employee appraisals. 

Keep performance management future focused
Performance management is an ongoing process, but it begins with employee involvement in setting specific expectations and measurable goals. Coaching through the performance period helps employees achieve success and document performance–good and bad. The process also provides data to streamline the process of writing the appraisal and sets the stage for a positive appraisal session with no surprises.


In this session, managers and supervisors learn how to make the performance management process an ongoing process of helping employees build to higher levels of performance.
