Effective Performance Appraisals

Summary

An effective performance review can be an opportunity for honest, open conversation about positive and negative results. It can inspire and engage people when it is focused on plans for the future. By setting expectations and helping associates to create achievable targets well in advance, then coaching and providing adequate feedback throughout the year, performance management becomes part of the culture rather than a dreaded annual event. This seminar empowers leaders to use performance appraisals to the benefit of the organization as well as the team member.
