Stop It! How to Lead Poor Performers or Help ​T​hem Out

Poor performers distract everyone. They waste management time, damage motivation of co-workers, reduce productivity, damage quality, lower customer satisfaction, and black the achievement of results.
We are doing a dismal job managing poor performance :
• The U.S. is wasting $105 billion annually on poor hiring and poor management
• 23% of U.S. employees believe colleagues are incompetent
• 68% of employee mistakes go unreported
• 27% of management time is spent on poor performers or correcting their mistakes
If leadership is an art and a science it requires melding the "softer" side of leadership, such as managing trust, with the "hard" side of building an effective system for results. Current leadership tools, such as the typical performance review, are failing to deliver needed results.
This presentation delivers proven strategies and tools, for both the neophyte manager all the way up to the most seasoned senior executives, to facilitate either a successful turnaround of performance behaviors or a respectful “de-selection” (removal) of those employees unwilling or unable to fulfill their responsibilities.
Participants will learn:
• How to recognize a poor performer and take action early to save a turnaround.
• Proven techniques for enrolling the full cooperation and engagement from everyone in the organization.
• How to use breakthrough tools to create high levels of responsibility and effortless accountability.
• The new skills leaders need to develop to compete in the knowledge economy.
• How to optimize the legal protection of the organization while accelerating solutions to poor performing people.
