How do you support team members to perform at their best when expectations aren’t being met?
Even in strong teams, performance can dip. Priorities shift, skills gaps appear, or expectations aren’t as clear as they need to be. When this happens, many managers feel unsure about how to step in without damaging relationships or confidence.
This practical, one‑hour webinar is designed for NZ business owners and employers who want to use Performance Improvement Plans as a positive, structured way to lift performance — while remaining fair and consistent.
We’ll show you how to address performance issues early, have better quality conversations, and use clear processes that give employees a genuine opportunity to succeed.
In just 60 minutes:
- Spot Early Performance Signals: Recognise when performance is drifting off track, and understand whether the issue is about performance, capability, or conduct
- Performance Conversations: Use a proven conversation structure to keep discussions constructive, clear, and focused on solutions
- Performance Improvement Plans: Understand when a PIP is appropriate, what it should include, and how to monitor progress
- Follow Fair and Reasonable Processes: Follow clear, practical steps to ensure your decisions are consistent, reasonable, and defensible
