CONDUCTING EFFECTIVE PERFORMANCE APPRAISALS

Motivate, Recognize and Align Your Staff

Most people hate performance appraisals.  They think they are a waste of time and just try to get them over with.  At their worst they can demoralize staff and damage relationships.  It doesn’t have to be that way.  When done right, PAs are an enabling tool that operate at the center of your management practices.  They help to recognize and reward staff.  They set operational and competency development directions for the coming year.  They serve as the framework for coaching, mentoring and feedback throughout the year.  When done right, they save time, add value and create accountability in all the right places.

This workshop is offered within organizations for groups of 5 people or more.
