$695 - includes 20 minute DVD-based training course, leader's guide, PowerPoint
Whether it’s at an appraisal or part of everyday interaction, delivering feedback is one of the most important, yet difficult skills an effective manager needs to develop. Your managers will learn to use the C.E.D.A.R. model to prepare for and engage in constructive feedback sessions.
Viewers will learn to:
- Be specific about the feedback they want to give – and about why they want to give it
- Explore the situation from the other person’s perspective
- Agree on the facts. What is actually happening and why? Focus on the facts, not on the person
- Be courteous and respectful. People are more likely to improve if they feel good about themselves
- Accept counter-feedback. Team members won’t focus on performance issues until they have addressed criticism directed at them

|
$695 - includes 22 minute DVD-based training course, leader's guide, PowerPoint
It's a fact. Some candidates shine at the interview but don't work out on the job. Interviewers can easily be impressed by a candidate's apparent abilities, but if they fail to probe into what that individual has actually achieved, they can fall into an expensive trap. They end up confusing experience with performance. This DVD-based training course explains the benefits of behavior-based interviewing. Behavior-based interviewing is a method of establishing that a candidate possesses the competencies you're hiring for based on evidence of past behavior. This method differs from other common interview techniques such as asking only hypothetical or biographical questions.
Viewers will learn to:
- Plan, conduct and review interviews using a competency approach
- Prepare behavior-based questions and evaluate candidate replies
- Uncover evidence of past performance by using "the power of you"
- Make notes for post-interview reference and delivering feedback

Viewers will learn to:
- Help the questioner arrive at his or her own solution
- Use sequences of questions to open up another person’s thought processes
- Resist the temptation to give quick answers when you're asked a question
- Help others evaluate the pros and cons of different approaches

Performance objectives can be as specific, agreed upon and as time-bounded as you like, but unless they are actually achieved, they're useless.

Managers also need to be able to explain how what they are doing fits into the overall corporate goals.
Viewers will learn to:
- Recognize real beliefs and motivations.
- Explain what constitutes an effective performance objective.
- Explain how an objective fits into your organization's wider goals.
- Gain both intellectual and emotional engagement.
- Be able to describe an effective objective.
