Build practical performance management and talent development skills to strengthen team performance, employee engagement, and long-term success. Designed for managers, this course provides strategies to set clear expectations, support employee performance, develop talent, and build high-performing teams.

The course also covers effective hiring and employee onboarding strategies to promote engagement and retention. Organizational consultants with expertise in work psychology share research-backed management practices, while practical tools, including evaluation rubrics and goal-setting frameworks, help turn management concepts into daily practices. Through hands-on activities, you’ll practice performance conversations with virtual employees and create a customized 30–60–90 day onboarding plan. By completing the course, you’ll be better prepared to develop talent, support employee growth, and lead a motivated, high-performing team aligned with organizational goals.
