Post Conference Workshop

One of the most difficult, time consuming and intense roles of an HR Practitioner is navigating performance complexities. HR teams need to manage increasing changes to laws, constant workplace change, and employees increasing awareness of their rights.
Reliance on complex processes such as formal performance improvement plans doesn’t always have the desired outcomes. Even with the most sound and well intentioned performance improvement and disciplinary processes in place, the risk of legal action is still there. This workshop will focus on how to continue in the face of any claims or grievances made, with legal confidence.
This one-day workshop provides in-depth practical focus on how to manage most
performance scenarios through meaningful, regular discussions and communication - helping you take practical approaches to unravelling the complexities of managing performance.
