Inheriting Underperformers

Inheriting Underperformers

Course overview

When you inherit team members, you're inheriting employees as they are, which is not trained by you. Some of them might be great as they are, some might quickly adapt to your expectations, and then there might be others who are under-performing. This can be a tricky situation, so in this course, we'll discuss how to work with under performers. We'll talk about what you should and shouldn't do as you get to know this person, and as they get to know you and your expectations. We'll also review the Can-Do, Will-Do grid, which is a great way to motivate employees and get them to peak performance. Lastly, we'll cover setting clear expectations and goals, and go over proper documentation and discipline if things don't improve.
