Overview
The aim
To ensure that appraiser and appraisee take equal responsibility for getting the most out of their meeting.
About the programme
It is essential that the manager conducting an appraisal, and the staff member being appraised, both understand the value and objectives of an appraisal interview for it to be worthwhile.
Suitable for a stand-alone appraisal course, this interview programme and self-study pack (for appraisees) takes a look at the whole appraisal process, and provides a number of valuable key learning points to follow.
Both parties should be adequately prepared, should listen and ask questions, and must concentrate on performance and not personality. They should be specific about successes and failures, agree future objectives and a course of action together, and be constructive and not destructive.The key outcomes
-Approach appraisal interviews with positivity and enthusiasm as an appraiser or an appraisee
-Productive appraisals will re-motivate and re-energise staffIncludes electronic training resources:
