Managing performance

Whether it’s managing poor performance or good, this one-day workshop delivers practical tools and techniques for effective performance management

Creating better teams

The way and standard to which every employee does their job will shape the overall success of an organisation. A manager's primary focus is to create effective teams – and using performance management to maintain, monitor and improve performance is key.

From setting realistic performance measurements to effective meetings and record keeping, every manager needs a core toolkit for performance management to ensure they deliver business goals.

 

Course features

Managing performance is a one-day, ready-to-run performance management training course.

This workshop covers all the key learning and techniques for effectively managing the performance of teams. It will enable participants to better understand the needs and motivations of others and use a range of practical tools and techniques to work with them to deliver great results.

We measure the impact of the performance management training through post-course evaluation, giving you confidence about the return on your investment.
