Developing a performance management system for staff teams can be a challenging task. Developing an approach that fits your service and the needs of your staff and management team needs to be individualized.

This self-paced package will explore the theory underlying performance appraisals processes and provide you with a range of tools you can use to develop a system that is right for your service and staff team.

You will have access to a range of strategies, formats and systems for staff appraisals to consider and decide what will work best for your staff team and importantly your management or leadership role.

Often the director works in isolation when it comes to quality assurance. Quality provision of services to children and families and meeting QA requirements is more effective when all staff take responsibility. Staff need to be engaged in every step of the way. This is not always an easy task and finding the right strategy for your services can be difficult. This interactive online package explores a range of strategies for directors/leaders to consider and seeks to provoke reflection on the role of the leader in managing the QA process and in particular the critical aspect of engaging staff.
