Managing Performance Training Course
Our one day Managing Performance training course will provide practical tools and approaches to use when team members do not perform to the standards that are required of them.

This Managing Performance Training Course looks at the responsibility of the leader for managing performance, what the leader should do to set performance standards and manage against them and what do to if performance drops below standard.
