Positively Managing Performance - Your Roadmap for Managing Employees, Increasing Engagement & Creating a High Performance Work Environment (Paperback)

Continuous Performance Management -- the new industry standard for igniting employee engagement and boosting productivity and profitability in today's modern workplace. And companies like Amazon, Microsoft, Google and IBM have taken note and switched from conducting annual performance reviews to continuous performance management. Positively Managing Performance is a guide for managers of people searching for help when it comes to effectively managing employee performance. It's one-part "textbook", packed with the leading research on continuous performance management, employee performance, engagement and productivity, and one-part "workbook", offering a step-by-step roadmap for setting expectations, handling employees' emotional reactions to feedback, conducting effective one-on-ones, duplicating performance using the author's Manager Multiplier Effecta process and more! Sharrell Kline's unique approach to coaching and passion for positive performance management stem from almost three decades of working with hundreds of managers and thousands of employees and their unions. However, it was while working for a manager who was completely clueless, and discovering that sometimes even "managing up" doesn't work, that she explored what was possible, found what worked and put it all into her P+sitively Managing Methoda tools and training. She now helps managers of people positively address employee performance in a way that makes them more confident and effective and their employees more engaged and productive.
