HRT114 - Employee Performance Management

Course Overview
Performance Management today is reflective of a changing emphasis in leadership – one that moves away from command-and-control and towards a facilitative model of management. Managers and their employees are being asked increasingly to move beyond traditional, narrowly defined job descriptions to support team objectives and goals. The approach today is more collaborative with more frequent coaching and check-ins. The emphasis has shifted to developing people to gain new skills and competencies by providing growth opportunities that deliver needed organizational results. This course is designed to help participants more effectively make and reinforce this transition.
