Briefings Audio Conference
Performance Talk: How Bosses Can Get Extraordinary Results From Their People
Why do some average employees suddenly excel when they get a new boss? And why do some stars see results fall off when they start reporting to someone else? Because bosses REALLY matter. And what matters most in the boss/subordinate relationship is how they communicate … the words they use and the way they exchange ideas. The dialogue IS the relationship.
In this conference, our speaker will give supervisors a powerful question-based technique that will give them the confidence they need to engage employees in productive performance dialogue.
