Performance Appraisal with Straight Talk |
|
|
|
Many managers and their staff dread performance appraisals. The conversations become emotional, people become defensive and conversation becomes argument. Most often the outcome is a damaged relationship and continued poor performance. In the long term, managers who are unable to hold effective performance appraisal discussions find themselves with under-performing teams from which the most competent people have left in search of better personal development.

Straight Talk to Effect Change |
|
|
|
When an organisation changes, people have to change. No-one likes changing the way they do things and while it’s hard to change your own behaviour, it’s often even harder to get others to change theirs. To make things worse, one change is often not complete before the next one is on its way.
If organisations are to change successfully, people must go through the personal transitions that enable them to change their behaviour. If transitions do not occur, change will not work and when the dust finally settles, nothing much will be different.

Straight Talk to Self Development |
|
|
|
It is becoming ever more apparent that having a successful life depends
on far more than having a high IQ, a good education and functional or
technical training. In fact, there are many highly educated and
intelligent people whose careers never take off and whose ability to
form good relationships with friends, family and partners is limited at
best.

Straight Talk to Better Teams |
|
|
|
When teams learn to talk straight their rewards are great results and great relationships. In teams that use politeness when they ought to use honesty, small irritations grow into issues that undermine relationships and damage trust and respect. Straight talking teams know how and when to speak up to confront difficult issues, so they can clear the air and move on.
