Set objectives that staff are committed to and support people to achieve these objectives during this workshop on Performance Management.
Introduction
Do you dread conducting appraisal sessions? Do you find them to be a time-wasting and paper filling exercise? Performance Management starts with setting SMARTER objectives that staff are committed to. Through constructive feedback, coaching and appraisal discussions, supervisors can support their staff to achieve these objectives. Effective performance management ensures staff are motivated and engaged to achieve high performance. This creates a win-win outcome for staff, management and organisation.
