Managing underperformance - digital event

Identifying the reasons behind underperformance and learning how to address it

Managing underperformance can be uncomfortable at times and can therefore get overlooked. However, failing to address it can have a significant negative impact on an organisation and its employees, leading to lower productivity, poor employee engagement and increased absence. 

Where an employee’s performance consistently fails to reach the required standard, 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. 

This event will help you understand the reasons for underperformance and its effects, and provide you with the skills to effectively identify, address and develop underperforming staff.

Who is this best suited to?

Delegates from all sectors of work, including: 

• line managers, supervisors and team leaders
