Course Aims and Objectives
Regular performance appraisals are vital for the effective management and evaluation of staff. Appraisals support the development of individuals, assist improvement in organisational performance, and channel critical information into the business planning process. Done well, performance appraisals will motivate and engage. Done poorly, the process is seen as a difficult administrative chore and emotionally challenging, time will be wasted and relationships could be irreparably damaged. Our course will provide your managers and supervisors with the understanding of how to approach appraisals correctly, and conduct them effectively, thereby making the process a valuable experience.
