We have a bunch of new workshops coming to a city near you!
We’re starting with Meaningful Performance and Development Conversations in Burnaby on July 12. Managing the performance of others is more than just an annual review. Meaningful performance management is an ongoing process that results in continuous improvement, enhanced performance, clear expectations and objective measurement.
