Workplace Application:
You have a tough review coming up and you don't want the employee to be on the defensive because it's important to know what he or she is thinking. 

For many employees and managers, a face-to-face performance review is the most stressful work conversation they'll have all year. This session will guide you through a discussion about the benefits of performance reviews for both you and your employees and will share 10 ways to give an effective employee review. The 10 biggest mistakes managers make when it comes to employee reviews will also be revealed. You will leave with an outline of a three-step assertive communication process to help you interact more assertively and authentically during performance reviews with your employees. This session will help you:

·         Identify the mistakes you may be making that negatively affect your performance reviews.

·         Effectively practice assertive conversations.

·         Learn to really hear what your employees are saying, which will increase their engagement in what they are doing. 

·         Discover strategies you can use to handle difficult people.
