Performance Reviews with Less Stress & Better Results Proven strategies that take the guesswork out of delivering feedback, discussing compensation, and handling sensitive situations 1-Hour CareerTrack Audio Conference — October 30, 2008! Communication between managers and employees is essential to the success of every organization, every team, and every individual. When communication breakdowns occur, employee satisfaction decreases, productivity declines, and team morale drops. To prevent this, managers and supervisors need to be prepared to deliver accurate and effective feedback to employees at all times; performance reviews are a critical part of this effort. For most organizations, performance reviews occur annually. These once-a-year meetings are often dreaded by the manager or supervisor giving the review, as well as by the employee receiving the feedback. Yet, because of the critical nature of this annual meeting, it is important to both parties that the review is accurate, effective, and geared to produce positive results. So just what is it about performance reviews that makes them so loathed? Performance reviews require managers and supervisors to set aside time in their busy schedules to try to objectively evaluate the performance of their employees over the previous year. For many of us, it's difficult to remember what we were working on last week, let alone what has occurred over the past 12 months. Although a performance review takes place only once annually, managers and supervisors can help alleviate the pressure and dread by using effective evaluation tools throughout the year. Are you confident that you are providing your employees with the feedback they need to improve performance ... or do you find yourself spending too much time struggling to communicate effectively and winding up stressed out and exhausted? Can you effectively capture (in writing) the behaviors and actions that reflected positive and negative employee performance throughout the year? Can you create an atmosphere that is conducive to an honest exchange? Are you capable of dealing with employees who become emotional and/or difficult while discussing performance issues? Do you know how to effectively communicate your expectations of an employee in a manner that gets results? Do you have a process in place that allows you to accumulate feedback over time, rather than struggling to come up with it just before the review takes place? If you've answered "no" to even one of these questions, you need to attend this program to simplify and streamline the process of conducting performance reviews ... and ensuring they get real results!
