Performance is Cultivated, not Managed
Let’s be honest – our performance management practices aren’t working. In fact, they’ve been failing to deliver results for a long time (if they ever did in the first place). Like many other traditional workplace practices we’ve been scrutinizing and redesigning, traditional performance management overlooks an important truth about human beings: performance and growth are our default setting.
Performance is human nature. It doesn’t need to be managed; it needs to be cultivated. So how do we do this? By learning to have wildly effective check-in conversation. When we have the conversations that matter, performance improves naturally.
What you will learn:
-
How to replace outdated, production-minded management practices with a more modern and effective approach called cultivation.
-
A four-step check-in process you can use to cultivate employee performance, growth, and retention.
-
Structured clarity check-in template you can use to cultivate and accelerate employee performance.
