Empowering Excellence: Performance Appraisal Training for Organisational Growth
At the heart of effective performance management lies a critical process: performance appraisals. In today’s fast-paced and competitive business landscape, performance management is no longer just an HR function—it’s a strategic driver of growth. When done correctly, appraisals are not just evaluations; they are powerful conversations that align people with purpose, unlock development opportunities, and foster high-performance cultures.
At MakeWay Global, our Performance Management Training with a focus on appraisals helps organisations turn these once-feared reviews into impactful leadership tools.
What Is Performance Management Training?
Performance management training equips leaders, managers, and HR professionals with the tools to:
– Set clear, measurable performance expectations
– Provide ongoing and constructive feedback
– Conduct effective, fair, and motivating performance appraisals
– Drive employee development, engagement, and retention
This training ensures performance conversations are not just about evaluation—but about growth, coaching, and alignment with business strategy.
The Role of Performance Appraisals in Training
A performance appraisal is a formal, structured review of an employee’s contributions, behaviours, and growth opportunities. Our performance appraisal training ensures managers are confident and capable in conducting appraisals that are:
– Objective, consistent, and fair
– Linked to business goals and KPIs
– Focused on development, not punishment
– Backed by performance data and evidence
Techniques Covered Include:
– SMART goal-setting
– 360-degree feedback
– Behavioural assessments
– Self-evaluation methods
– Role-based scorecards
