What is the course

What is the Performance Management programme?

A practical, outcome-focused programme designed to help managers manage performance consistently, fairly and constructively.

The Performance Management programme equips participants with practical approaches for setting expectations, monitoring progress, giving feedback, handling underperformance and supporting improvement.

Is this right for your team

Is this built for your team?

This course is ideal for many organisations, but may not be the best fit for every situation. Here’s a quick guide to help you decide.

Ideal for teams who:
  • Want managers to set clearer expectations and performance standards
  • Need more consistent feedback and performance conversations
  • Want supervisors to address underperformance earlier and more constructively
  • Value fair, practical and accountable performance management practices
Another course may be better if:
  • You are looking for a public, open-enrolment course
  • You need a highly technical or specialist certification
  • Your team is not yet ready for this level of training
  • You are primarily looking for consultancy rather than training
