Captain Leadership and the Case of the Performance Nightmare

SESSION INFO

Monday, August 19, 2019
2:30 PM - 4:00 PM
Session Type: Workshop

Why is that guy always late? Why do those reports always require modification because they are never done right? Does she ever stay at her own desk? As a supervisor, your greatest challenges do not necessarily come from clients. They may be coming from your employees. As agency philosophy changes, budgets shrink, and expectations increase, so too must your employees grow and change their behavior. But how do you manage them? In this workshop, you will learn how to develop a self-inventory of your own behavior and identify what is being projected to your employees. We will help you identify high-risk and low-performing employees who may be creating a toxic environment and provide some steps you can use to address behaviors that need to change. Recognize that a leader must use good communication, honest feedback, and follow-up to effect change in employee behavior. So, get ready to don your super-specs, wield your magic wand, and cast out spells that help your employees be their best.
