BACKGROUND
Research shows that more than half of the professional and clerical employees working today do not understand how their work is evaluated. And studies have long recognized the role of insufficient performance feedback as a primary cause of poor performance.
Evaluating employees' performance is an important leadership function. Yet, a survey by the Society for Human Resource Management found that less than 10% of managers believe job performance reviews are effective. Managers and supervisors must clearly understand the performance appraisal process so that they can convey expectations, effectively provide employees with feedback for improvement, encourage trusting and respectful relationships, and safeguard the company and its employees from legal liability.
That's where we can help. AHI has teamed up with Rebecca Mazin to present a 90-minute web conference titled:

Why You Should Listen In On This Conference

To make your 2008 performance appraisals more effective and legally defensible. This learning session is a great way to start off the new year on the right track by teaching your supervisors how to conduct evaluation sessions that will increase their employees' productivity.
-
You and your managers will also learn how to properly communicate and document poor performance so that your organization is protected from legal liability if an employee is terminated.
- You and your supervisors will learn the importance of setting motivating goals throughout the year to improve employee engagement and avoid "surprises" during reviews.
