Confronting Loveable Underperformers and/or Despicable, Landmine Employees
Many HR Professionals (and managers in general) find it difficult to effectively correct underperformance. But, two chronic underperformers are particularly difficult to address.
Whether we worry about hurting the feelings of a really nice/popular team member, or simply want to avoid the emotion of an angry, defiant one; poor performance is often ignored under the guise of “preserving peace.” This presentation will teach you how to facilitate a constructive initial conversation, create a coaching strategy that directly ties performance to key objectives, and hold the person accountable with quantifiable metrics. If you or some of your supervisors/managers are avoiding having courageous conversations, these strategies will help you to more effectively improve results and ensure progress. This approach minimizes the emotional or subjective aspect of coaching/correction and allows (or forces) both parties to focus on the objective facts and the logical steps to improvement. By creating measurable benchmarks, subsequent coaching and/or disciplinary conversations can be conducted rationally and eliminate claims of unfairness or favoritism. While no one can guarantee that a person who feels threatened won’t react in a negative fashion, these strategies do ensure a clearer path to a resolution. You can even use this on managers with “squatter’s rights.”
1) How to eliminate the emotion and create an objective environment where candor is the norm.
2) The importance of effectively diagnosing the problem(s) and identifying the contributors.
3) Create an outcome-based improvement plan that ties personal objectives for growth to organizational objectives.
