Managing poor performance is a responsibility that most managers find at best unpleasant, and at worst, extremely daunting. Unfortunately, this often means that poor performance is not actually managed - it is left to get slowly worse, in the hope that the person will eventually decide to leave of their own accord. Allowing poor performance to continue is not only bad news for person themselves, it also affects the credibility of the manager, and the organisation as a whole.

This course will equip front-line managers with the skills and knowledge to deal confidently and professionally with poor performers. It will show delegates how to use appropriate formal and informal processes of support, training & development, meetings and reviews to enable performance to get back on track, and to avoid escalating problems for everyone involved.

It is particularly recommended for new or aspiring managers, or those who would like to improve their confidence and ability to deal professionally and effectively with poor performance.

Delegates will learn:
- How to identify and respond to the causes of poor performance
- How to give honest and constructive feedback
- How to deal with difficult and aggressive employees
- How to deal with people with emotional difficulties
- How to reach a win/win solution
- How to develop an action plan to improve performance
