Performance reviews are an essential component of employee development. Setting goals and objectives to aim for will give supervisors and employees a unified focus and targets to aim for. Supervisors must also learn how to give feedback, both positive and negative, on a regular and timely basis so that employees can grow and develop. Performance appraisals involve all these activities. At the end of this three-day seminar you'll recognize the importance of having a performance appraisal process for employees, understand how to work with employees to set performance standards and goals, develop skills in observing and giving feedback, listening and asking questions, for improved performance, identify an effective interview process and have the opportunity to practice the process in a supportive atmosphere, and develop strategies for managing employee performance.
