An Introductory Guide to Performance Management

The workplace has become more stressful than ever before and relentlessly competitive. If you're not careful, a manager's job today can become a nighmare. Just ask Jack Cade.

It is a supervisor or manager's responsibility to communicate with their employees and upper management accurately, continually and professionally. This two-way role tends to get many managers caught in the crossfire. Through this workshop participants will learn how effective performance management benefits the manager, employee and the organization.

Key Management Training Program Points:

• Improve the manager-employee relationship through continual communication and interaction
• Enhance a work environment that is centered on cooperation and partnership
• Increase productivity through clear expectations and constant feedback
• Develop a more skilled workforce by identifying opportunities for the employee's professional development

Jack Cade Video Case Study Synopsis:

Part I: The Performance Management Nightmare - Jack Cade thinks management is pretty simple - he just stays out of the way and follows his "No problem" approach to every problem or situation. Jack is caught in a classical employee-upper management crossfire. His employees pressure him for specific performance feedback and more involvement. Upper management wants productivity and performance improved. Through a series of situations you will witness the mistakes Jack makes in dealing with his employees and his communication to his upper management.

Part II: Preventing the Nightmare - The case studies presented in this segment illustrate how you can avoid potential nightmares by better understanding your role as a manager and by learning some of the basic rules of performance management. Guided by a 10-point outline for better performance management you will revisit the mistakes Jack made in Part I and consider ways he should have acted to prevent his nightmare.

Audience: Managers, or anyone who supervises others and is responsible for assessing employee performance
