  • Course Description: Conducting effective performance appraisals that are legally defensible is an essential responsibility of every manager. Performance appraisals not only need to drive an effective strategy for performance improvement, but they also have to stand up to legal scrutiny for wrongful termination claims and to charges of EEO violations.

    Fortunately, by following a series of sound, practical guidelines managers can develop a file of legally defensible documentation that will help them prevail in court and greatly reduce their chances of facing legal scrutiny in the first place. Performance appraisals should be free of bias and emotion and prepared with job-related work performance only. This fair and consistent approach increases employee morale and results in better work performance throughout the organization.

  • Course Description: Conducting extraordinary performance appraisals is an essential skill for every manager. Performance appraisal is the single most effective tool a manager can use for performance improvement. Appraisals serve as an opportunity to provide constructive feedback and coaching as well as a time to give recognition and inspiration. Not only do great appraisals improve employee performance, but they strengthen manager performance as well. After all, managers cannot truly succeed until their employees do.

    The extraordinary performance appraisal is not born out of a single meeting. Rather, it’s a continuous year-round process. Performance appraisals are only meaningful when they have direct, ongoing influence on an employee’s behavior and performance. And the appraisal won’t have any influence if it’s something that you only think about just one day out of the year.

Following these guidelines will give citizens the critical information they need and save your organization time and resources.
