Performance Review (Conducting)

Course Description:

This program is designed primarily for managers and other supervisory personnel who conduct performance reviews. The goal of the training is to make participants aware of the important leadership opportunity the performance review presents and to demonstrate and practice guidelines for effective written and verbal communication to be used during a review. The fundamental principle behind this program is that, regardless of how technical or global an industry is, its core is people working together. The more involved and worthwhile people feel, the greater the potential for productivity. The performance review provides a chance to involve people in planning their future growth.

Participants explore the skills to make the performance review a unique opportunity for supervisors to act as facilitators and trainers for their employees' personal and professional growth. The skills of effective written documentation, active listening, constructive feedback, and goal setting are practiced. As this is a one-day program, it purposefully keys in on these four skills and avoids other issues (e.g., where to conduct the review, how often, etc.)
