Performance Appraisals: Getting Great Results!

How to get the best from your employees and tackle poor performance before it becomes a habit…

Effective performance appraisals add value to your organization. They motivate your top employees to do even better. And they tell under-performers exactly what is expected and how to improve.

Unfortunately, performance appraisals are often regarded as mere formalities. Reviews are sometimes skipped, or done late. Clear guidance falls by the wayside, and half hearted work goes unchallenged.

In this video-based seminar, you will follow two story lines. One involves a small business taking steps to formalize a review process for the first time. The other presents a large corporation attempting to energize an existing system. You will see two very different managers prepare for challenging review meetings – and see them apply skills that defuse tension and achieve their desired results.
