FEBRUARY 18th, 9:00 am – 9:50 am, Session A
Presented by: Bob Lewis, Assistant Director for The University of Texas Professional Development Center.
Managers want better performance from employees, and employees want better feedback from managers. When managers know more about employees’ performance motivations, they are better able to link employees to appropriate tasks, projects, products – and help the organization achieve its goals.
Participants evaluate potential employee issues, develop effective problem statements, role play, and consider the performance appraisal process. Topics include motivation, coaching types and strategies, managing relationships, overcoming uncertainty when doing corrective counseling, and how achievement and recognition together can create a positive environment and productive results.
Outcomes of this Session include:
- Implement constructive methods to correct employee behavior
- Reach mutually agreed-upon goals through counseling
- Understand how motivation can be an effective tool in the coaching process
- Define coaching strategies with employees
- Create a feedback model to improve employee performance
