Improve The Performance Management Skills Of The Supervisors In Your Organization
Supervisors and managers must be ready, willing, and able to communicate clear expectations, provide ongoing employee performance reviews to achieve those expectations, and conduct annual performance appraisals with proper documentation to ensure the effectiveness of their performance management process and safeguard the company from legal liability.
Yet many managers avoid doing appraisals, or they do them grudgingly. Often, employees end up not fully understanding what is expected of them or how they are actually doing on the job. In these ways, ineffective performance evaluations can actually contribute to poor performance.
Even worse, inaccurate ratings of employee performance are often used in employee lawsuits as evidence of discrimination and/or retaliation. Employees who have received above average ratings and are later terminated point to those appraisals as evidence that discrimination was the real reason for their dismissal. Or, a sudden drop in ratings after a complaint is used as evidence of retaliation.
To help avoid these problems, AHI's Conducting Motivating & Legally-Sound Performance Appraisals course can be used as part of your organization’s management training program to assist you in training your supervisors and managers on how to properly manage and document the performance of those who report to them.
