Managing Performance

A 3‑hour virtual session for leaders who want to manage performance with purpose, clarity and care.

Strong performance doesn’t happen by chance. It’s built through everyday leadership behaviours, clear expectations, and a culture where trust, accountability and support go hand in hand.

This energising and practical session helps leaders understand how to manage performance at every level – individual, team and organisational. Through real‑world tools, reflection and discussion, participants will explore how to set clear goals, have effective performance conversations, give meaningful feedback, and balance challenge with support to get the best from their people.

Rather than focusing on process alone, this session brings performance management to life – helping leaders build capability, motivation and ownership, while staying aligned to organisational purpose, values and strategy.

By the end of this session, you’ll be able to:

  • Understand the four key areas of performance management and how to apply them day‑to‑day
  • Use the Challenge vs Support model to flex your leadership approach for different individuals and situations
  • Link individual and team performance to organisational purpose, values and strategic goals
  • Set clear expectations using SMART goals and apply feedback models that drive accountability and improvement
  • Assess and develop team capability and motivation, not just output
  • Lead confident, constructive performance conversations – even when they feel challenging
