Course programme

As resources are squeezed, and change continues, it becomes even more important to get the very best out of the people you manage. Traditional approaches to performance management are too formal, too infrequent and often fail to tackle the real issues. This is about a new approach to performance management – courageous conversations.

On this challenging and interactive one day programme you will learn:

  • Why courageous conversations are needed
  • How to give feedback in a way that delivers the message and enhances the relationship
  • How to set challenging goals
  • How to be honest with yourself about your team's performance
  • How to tackle underperformers in a way that produces measurable change
  • Why you need to spend as much time with high performers as with those in the middle and bottom of the performance range
  • How to motivate people and the surprising truth about when to use internal motivation and when to use external
  • How to develop people – your role as a teacher, mentor and coach
  • Above all, how to be authentic in your dealings with your team
