Webinar to help HR staff develop and manage employee performance


Performance management starts with effective recruitment and thorough onboarding. Initial hiring and training practices have many long-term effects on performance. It is also imperative to have trained supervisors who are effective coaches and provide continuous feedback. Can you determine if and why some employees aren’t performing? Are those issues addressed through counseling or the disciplinary process? Do you conduct formal performance reviews? Most HR professionals agree that formal reviews are not necessarily effective.

This webinar on Tuesday, March 13, from 3:00 P.M. to 4:30 p.m., will address hiring, onboarding, day-to-day feedback, and a more formal review program. Learn key concepts of an effective performance management program and the pros and cons of various models. Best practices, trends in performance management systems, and tips for improvement will be covered.

For those participating in this webinar, you can expect to learn about:

  • Essential steps and processes for an effective performance management system
  • Recruitment and onboarding components that can positively impact performance management programs
  • Key training tips to help supervisors understand their role
  • Pros and cons of various performance review models
  • Best practices and tips for improving systems
