Appraisal Skills (1 day)

As a manager, it is vitally important that you can find ways to increase productivity and results of your team. Effective appraisal gives you the opportunity to review past performance, discuss and agree future performance targets and to plan future training and coaching needs. At the same time it offers the employee the opportunity of discussing their performance, knowing how they are performing and allowing them the opportunity to discuss their role and ideas for achieving agreed objectives. An appraisal, if done right, is the best opportunity you have to motivate, encourage, coach and improve productivity for the individuals in your team.

This appraisal skills course will equip delegates with all the necessary skills and knowledge to position the appraisal process in the right way, to prepare and deliver the process in a professional manner and to maximise the opportunity as a positive experience for both parties. This course will give you a number of approaches and techniques to ensure that the appraisals that you conduct are structured, balanced, productive and positive.
