Managing Performance Appraisals Effectively

Join our upcoming public workshops: 

 

Please contact us for more details.

This programme is designed for:

Employees who want to manage upwards effectively and create conditions to do their best work.

Performance appraisal need not be demoralizing or stressful. Much of employee dissatisfaction in performance appraisals come from a lack of understanding of what performance management is, how performance review should be conducted and how staff can manage the performance review process actively. The key to making performance review meaningful is to adopt a holistic way of managing one’s performance. Having a growth and appreciative mindset towards performance and development will not only help an employee grow, it will also build a productive working relationship with one’s manager and create a synergistic win-win between the employee, manager and organization. It is too important to be left to chance. 

Why is this critical?

Because it is not possible to perform one's best without aligning one's aspirations and sense of meaning to the organization mission and vision. A high performing employee manages upwards effectively to create the conditions for them to do their best work.

  • Aligning mutual expectations between manager and employee focuses one's efforts.

  • Articulating one's strengths creates more opportunities to leverage what they are good in.

  • Identifying growth opportunities unleashes energy for learning.

  • Taking ownership in one's performance empowers one to do their best.
