Managing underperformance (Scotland) - digital event

Overview

Managing underperformance can be uncomfortable at times and can therefore get overlooked. However, failure to address it can have a significant negative impact on a business and its employees. 

This 3-hour digital event will provide you with the skills and confidence to help you effectively identify, address and develop underperforming staff.

Business need

Although regular reviews and support will help minimise underperformance, there may be occasions where an employee’s performance consistently fails to reach the required standard. 

Where this is the case, managers must be prepared to address the issue in a fair and consistent way and ensure that any disciplinary action is in line with the Acas Code of Practice on disciplinary and grievance procedures. 

Failure to address underperformance can lead to:

• poor employee engagement 
• resentment towards management 
• low productivity 
• increased staff absence 
• unnecessary stress on other employees 
• ineffective use of management time 

This digital event will help you understand the reasons for underperformance and the effects it can have on your business and employees. It will also provide you with practical skills to fairly address underperformance in your workplace. 

Delivered via Zoom, you will have the opportunity to interact with our knowledgeable trainers and explore some of the challenges you may be facing.
