A performance standard is a management-approved expression of the performance threshold (s), or expectation(s) that must be met to be appraised at a particular level of performance. http://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/performance-management/performance-manage...16
Many performance problems can be traced back to a failure to explain and agree on expectations and/or a failure to understand and provide the help that the person needs. http://www.businessballs.com/performance_management.htm 17
Managing performance requires managers to balance caring for and developing their people with ensuring that departmental and organizational goals are achieved. http://www.businessballs.com/performance_management.htm 18

Communication MotivatingTeam Building

COMMUNICATION We all have different communication styles.
There is no one communication style that is right or wrong.
Communication styles have a great deal to do with ones personality
Typically are complementary to each persons personality. 35
Whats Your Style? Go to the part of the room where your communication style is posted.
In your group assign a recorder and a reporter.
Answer the questions from the handout.
We will report out momentarily. 36
We all have our own communication styles that are often different and unique in some way.
There is no right or wrong communication style
Understanding and appreciating these differences can make you a better communicator
Understanding differences can help improve relationships with others. 37
MOTIVATING YOUR TEAM Some employees get great satisfaction from their work. Some employees view work as a burden and simply work to survive. Question: Who is responsible for motivating your team? Members or Managers? 38
It is not a managers job to motivate their agents. It is however a leaders responsibility to create an environment in which agents can be self-motivated. 39
