OVERVIEW

About this course.

Performance appraisals — also called performance reviews, development reviews or one-to-ones — are one of the most powerful tools a manager has, yet they are also one of the most commonly mishandled. Done well, an appraisal is a structured, two-way conversation that reviews performance, recognises achievements, gives honest feedback, sets clear objectives and agrees how the person will be supported to develop.

Whether you are a new team leader carrying out your first reviews, an experienced manager sharpening your approach, or an HR professional supporting others through the process, this course explains both the principles and the practice of effective appraisals — from preparation and structuring a genuine two-way conversation, through giving actionable feedback and agreeing SMART objectives, to handling underperformance fairly, avoiding bias and keeping proper records under the Equality Act 2010.
