The details on each program ...
Program 1: Performance Talk: Conversations That Get Your People to Goal
When managers fail to deliver frequent, effective "performance talks," employees don’t know what’s expected of them. They don’t know how well they’re doing. They don’t know how to get the results your organization needs. Sooner or later, top performers become frustrated and leave. Good performers begin to slide toward trouble. And underperformers stay their course.
Fortunately, managers and supervisors can develop the skills and confidence needed to deliver on-target performance talks that get results. This program will show them how to get it done.
In this presentation, viewers will learn how to:
- Get results using the “Three A’s” – the key elements of effective performance talk
- Make the most of “teachable moments”
- Avoid the five pitfalls that sabotage performance conversations
- Sidestep the number-one manager’s mistake that drives
- employees crazy
Plus, you’ll get specific ideas for handling the eight performance
situations that every manager will face – including, how to deal with problem employees, how to help good employees do better, and how to keep your top performers motivated.
Program 2: Salary Talk: How to Discuss Pay So Employees Feel They're Treated Fairly
