Description

This webinar is designed to give managers insight and tools for effectively dealing with performance issues. It is a challenging job, but with the right preparation, we can hold employees accountable and improve our organizations. You will receive several handouts that will act as a toolkit to get you started with your own program.

Managing employee performance is a critical role for all leaders, of any group, even volunteers and family members. Expected outcomes depend on the leader’s ability to set clear performance expectations (outcomes) and, in some situations, help by defining methods or processes that are to be used. Periodically, an employee may become disconnected from the outcome (goals) or processes, and this situation must be quickly assessed and action taken.

To wait, defer, or "hope" it will get better is not an option, as both the organization's performance and impact on co-workers start to take hold and can have a compounding negative impact. Addressing both technical ability and behavioral issues must be done expediently and with proper alignment to policy, along with regulatory boundaries for such action. The risk is real for doing it wrong; lawsuits and negative public relations are two of the areas of concern. Having a leadership team that is well advised and consistently applying best practices and approaches to performance management is critical to long-term success.

Areas Covered in the Session:-

  • How to start off on the right foot by creating clear expectations

Why You Should Attend:-

Despite good hiring and inspired leadership, all supervisors ultimately must deal with someone who is not performing at the expected, desired, or required level. Whether it’s crummy attitude, attendance, or just being unable to do good work, employee performance issues often consume large amounts of time, energy, and emotion. In fact, most employees have witnessed poor performance from bad behavior to ineptness, lack of skills, or what looks like zero motivation. Talent Management is the overarching structure all organizations have, some more well-developed and defined than others. In this webinar, we will focus on one area, Performance Management, and why and how to address.

Who Will Benefit:-

  • HR Manager
  • HR Business Partner
  • People & Culture Manager
  • Employee Relations Specialist
  • Talent Development Manager
  • Compliance Officer
  • Operations Manager
  • Team Leader
  • Department Head
  • Small Business Owner.
