Performance Management Course: Enhancing Team Success

Course Information

Management. Lift your career and your organisation.

The role of the manager is to deliver results. To do this, they need to be able to recruit well, develop relationships and ensure their staff perform.  

Many of us have been in teams where an individual’s poor performance has gone unaddressed for extended periods and have seen the impact this has had on ourselves and our colleagues. This situation reflects badly on the manager, whose perceived inaction frustrates those that are performing, and makes no difference in attitude and behaviour to those that are not. There is no space in the modern, efficient workplace to have ‘spectators’ in the group; underperforming, criticising the manager and team, and hindering the progress of  the business.  

As a manager are you going to tackle or tolerate this problem? 

This course will cover how to set up your staff for success right from the beginning, including strategies for resetting expectations if necessary, effectively monitoring and addressing both positive and negative outcomes, and managing those that get off track. Scripts will be provided that can be adjusted to suit both the manager and staff member.  

Aims

The aim of this course is to equip managers with the knowledge, skills and behaviours to manage the performance of their team. To be able to maintain and increase the performance of those who are already performing well and to coach, guide and, if necessary, terminate those who are failing to meet the required standards. You will leave feeling empowered to have the required performance conversations with your staff. 

Outcomes

By the end of this course you should be able to: 

  • communicate clear expectations and performance measures 
  • relate performance goals to the organisational strategy 
  • give both positive and corrective feedback using a four-step process 
  • recognise and reward high performance 
  • motivate your high performers to stay engaged, growing and contributing 
  • manage under performance promptly and appropriately according to policy and legislation 
  • prepare for a one-on-one ‘corrective performance conversation’  
  • conduct performance appraisal meetings.
