Clear immediate next steps — specific management commitments to implement from the very next performance conversation
Half-Day Performance Management Workshop Outline
Managers define what strong performance management looks like in practice and why most organisations struggle with it. They create clear performance expectations and SMART objectives, practise the expectation conversations that make accountability possible, and develop the structure for one-to-one meetings that sustain focus and surface issues before they escalate.
Managers practise delivering specific, constructive feedback that lands as information rather than criticism, apply structured frameworks for addressing underperformance conversations early, and leave with a personal management action plan — specific commitments to change in their very next performance conversation.
