How do you get everyone in the organization moving together toward business goals? How do you focus people toward performance? The answer lies in performance management, a systematic approach that aligns employee behavior with organizational strategies.

Without it, employees lack direction and motivation. They feel disconnected from the organization and may lack the will and the energy to make a real contribution.

This webinar will equip you with the skills and knowledge to create a process that will develop your employees, shape the culture of your organization (or work unit), and increase productivity.

Learning objectives include:

• Write targeted performance goals
• Diagnose and correct performance issues
• Use coaching techniques to bring out the best in people
• Provide effective feedback on performance
• Deliver performance appraisals that matter
