Leadership Skills & Soft Skills - How to Conduct a Performance Review When You're a Manager or Leader

When you're a new manager or leader, it's important that you learn how to conduct a performance review with your staff. Performance reviews, or employee evaluations, are an effective way to evaluate how your staff are performing. You need to know this so you identify gaps in their skill-set and provide training or support to help them improve. It's also a good chance for you to hear directly from the employee about their motivations, career aspirations and goals. Performance reviews are a critical part of your job as a manager and leader. In order for you to conduct them well and have a great performance review (that your employees will love), you need to know the basics and learn the tried and true structure for conducting performance reviews at work. In this video I reveal how to prepare, conduct and follow up after a performance review. Don't go into the performance review without any plan or preparation. This is a recipe for disaster! You need to be structured in your approach and this video will help you do that. Let's boost your leadership and management skill and learn how to conduct a great performance review!
