Course Overview 

Building people and performance capability within organisations is essential for optimising the bottom line. This starts with getting buy-in to a high performance environment, and creating a performance partnership with staff, where they drive for performance improvement and are motivated to self-manage and correct.

Feedback from our last session:

  • “A must for all staff with management responsibilities to assist them in gaining the knowledge and confidence in addressing non performance and giving clear performance feedback.”
  • “Learnt a lot by listening to the facilitator giving examples of phrases to use with staff.”
  • “I realised why staff behave the way they do and how to change their performance with my approach."
  • "I got more out of the first 90 mins of this training than I got from a performance management course I attended."
