TOPIC: Developing Leaders through Strategic Performance Management and Engagement
Summary: Too many managers take their key employees for granted. Others don’t know how they would survive if their top revenue producer left the company and some managers may not know how to engage a top performer. This session will help you develop a strategic performance management plan that will identify, engage and retain your top performers and help create a sense of ownership among key employees in their own leadership and performance development.
By gaining an intimate knowledge of the organization, you will be able to facilitate management’s identification of key employees and create a long-range plan to develop those employees. You will also learn techniques to train managers to become strategically focused on the long-range development of employees rather than just the needs of tomorrow.
Objectives:
1.Understand the need for career development plans for key employees in order to retain them in a growing and changing economy
2.How to develop and align a development and retention program that is based on strategic performance management of key employees, tying into the strategic plans of the business
3.How to develop a strategic performance management program that is based on the organization’s long-range goals/objectives
4.Understand how to educate managers to identify strategically important employees and how to development those employees through leadership and development
