Making Performance Management Happen

Many organizations are developing a performance management infrastructure to improve outcomes and better allocate resources.  Whether your organization is just embarking on the performance management journey or you are well on your way, consider joining us for a free webinar, Making Performance Management Happen.  This webinar will provide guidance on building evaluation capacity, overcoming challenges, and maintaining performance management infrastructure within an organization.  

Making Performance Management Happen Webinar

The presenters will discuss their experiences implementing the 'performance management cycle' - their guide to successfully ensuring that an organization becomes more data-driven. Participants will learn how to develop performance management processes, who should be at the table, and how to create a data-based decision-making environment. Additionally, practitioners will learn how information can be used to improve organizational overall effectiveness.

 

This is part of a PerformWell series on performance management methods and techniques, hosted by members of the PerformWell partner organizations. Learn more about the webinar, and register here.
