Why a Coaching Mindset Works for Performance Reviews

from The Coaching Cafe Podcast · host Jonathan Boyle

Last week we introduced the idea that the traditional annual or mid-year performance review is increasingly under the spotlight, with some organisations moving away from the formal review process altogether. This week we continue the conversation with a focus on the coaching mindset that supports regular performance conversations to enable engagement, accountability and high performance in the workplace. At the heart of this conversation is the idea that performance reviews themselves are not necessarily the problem. Rather, it is how we approach them. Reframing performance reviews as ongoing, continuous conversations creates opportunities for stronger engagement, clearer expectations and more meaningful development. Join Dr Natalie Ashdown and leadership and HR specialist Paula Jones-Hunt as we explore: ✓ A better understanding of the coaching mindset and coaching approach to performance conversations ✓ Our favourite tools for creating engaging and productive conversations ✓ A practical approach to building accountability, engagement and documenting the way forward Whether you are new to the annual performance review cycle, moving away from the traditional approach, or coaching others to have better conversations, this webinar will provide practical tools and engaging insights to support high performance conversations.
