Owning Reviews and Appraisals
Lead transparent, motivational and collaborative reviews and appraisals which benchmark progress
The Capability Gap
Managers often struggle to conduct motivational appraisals which provide critical feedback and effectively set goals.
Communication skills and confidence can be lacking, resulting in ineffective conversations at best, or demotivating and confusing experiences at worst.
Handling challenging situations, such as addressing underperformance or conflict, becomes a daunting task for both parties and they can become a tick box exercise – and a huge lost opportunity. This capability gap can hinder employee development, impact morale, and impede organisational growth.
Instead managers must learn to conduct impactful appraisals, cultivating a high-performance culture and driving organisational success.
