Marlene Jenkins’ program focuses on how to evaluate performance on an on-going basis, set realistic performance objectives, and conduct effective appraisal interviews. In her program participants discover why performance improvement plans are so critical, explore the best ways to give and take feedback, analyze individual performance, and write results-oriented job descriptions. Participants learn to ask employees to improve their performance in ways that produce results, not resentment.
