Permission to Manage™

Influencing the discretionary effort and loyalty of employees is highly dependent on the leadership and performance management skills of supervisors and managers. This requires a proactive strategy for exercising performance management practices.

Today, many employees suffer from unclear expectations, vague priorities, inconsistent feedback and performance monitoring, unclear and unspecific direction, and untimely and ineffective correction for performance errors. With the popular, but misguided approach, of avoiding micromanagement allegations and being an ‘empowering’ manager, employees often receive a ‘hands-off’ approach.

This interactive program provides critical skills for implementing routine tactics for managing performance. Participants learn to put structure into their management practices and put seven pragmatic principles for effective performance management and execution into play in their daily routine.
