Business Context
Strengthening performance conversations and feedback capability within an existing PMS framework
1. The Real Problem
What? A defined performance management system existed, but the quality of performance conversations varied significantly across managers.
How? Performance discussions often remained: review-focused rather than developmental, inconsistent in structure and depth, dependent on individual manager capability.
2. What We Designed / How We Solved
A Coaching-Centric Performance Conversation Architecture
We designed a structured intervention to help managers shift from evaluation to development-focused conversations.
- Structure performance conversations with clarity and intent
- Use data-backed discussion rather than subjective feedback
- Apply coaching techniques such as active listening and questioning
- Navigate difficult conversations with confidence
- Conceptual clarity
- Real-world simulations
- Facilitated reflection
This ensured learning translated into day-to-day managerial behaviour, not just workshop understanding.
