Ongoing performance development involves establishing a systematic process that leaders can use to support employees. This process focuses on creating clear expectations for individual performance based on the organization’s goals. The goal of this session is to help leaders improve their people development skills by implementing a performance management system that helps every employee achieve their peak performance potential.

This course provides tools for becoming emotionally intelligent in the workplace.
