“Our problem is we need more accountability.” Sound familiar? And there needs to be an ongoing flow of feedback loops from leaders, between leaders and from staff to leaders about the good, the bad, the ugly with follow up. Likely not as familiar. Many leaders use accountability as a verb when it’s a neutral outcome of performance. And performance is largely dependent on high quality, relevant and regular feedback.
In this workshop participants will learn the different opportunities for feedback and the performance gaps that exist in the organization that are likely rooted in feedback misses. They’ll also learn different forms of feedback and delivery methods. Learners will then be presented with a feedback delivery model with opportunity to apply and practice in existing circumstances. Learners will leave with resources and knowledge to deliver feedback effectively and understand the value of making feedback exchange a standard practice.

As leaders, many times we are not taught how to motivate or correct employee performance or behavior within the workplace. Much of what we learn is how to manage employees through a “Carrot-and-Stick” approach or through “Performance Improvement Plans.” However, building a leader’s coaching skills can dramatically shift an employee’s performance and uncover any blocks, issues, or fears that may be caused by an underlying problem that the leader may not be aware of.
In this workshop, participants will have an opportunity to learn and practice effective coaching skills to help build employee awareness, motivation, and improve performance.
Course Objectives
In this workshop we will focus on:
- Asking effective questions
- Listening deeply

Too many leaders still define reviews as performance management. However, it truly happens the other 364 days of the year. And it is a critical responsibility of each leader, including articulating expectations/standards, course-correcting performance and behaviors, and measuring results. Additionally, performance management changes results when performance is evaluated in a manner that is an accurate reflection and differentiates reward. And the most powerful lever to impact results is through intentional development using the appropriate modality. This workshop provides a thorough definition of performance management and key actions that support organizational results.
