Not Just Another Meeting
22 minutes

Sale: $695.00
Rental: $165.00

Most supervisors, if you ask them, will own up to a certain amount of dread when it comes to performance appraisals. Many are threatened by confrontation. Some are simply unprepared for the encounter. Others can't get beyond personal biases. Still others can't evaluate performance without dancing around the real issues or putting employees on the defensive.
Not just Another Meeting was developed specifically for supervisors who have trouble keeping performance appraisals productive and on track. With this video, your supervisors can gather in a non-threatening, supportive setting-and "eavesdrop" on ten videotaped performance appraisals that go off track. As the trainer, you'll have built-in opportunities to stop the video between vignettes and discuss what went wrong and why. Then switch it back on to hear the narrator sum up the problem and offer realistic solutions. Once employees witness the proper techniques for conducting performance appraisals-and learn to plan ahead, keep accurate documentation, listen effectively and set reasonable goals-they'll start looking at the process as it should be regarded: as an opportunity to help employees grow and contribute to the success of the company.
Focus Points
How to plan for the appraisal and prepare appropriate documentation
How to confront performance problems quickly and candidly
How to keep the conversation specific and avoid personal bias
How to identify mutual goals
How to use effective listening tools
How to establish ongoing communication so appraisals hold no "surprises" for either party

Supervisor Toolkit

Produced        82 mins.  Sale: $995   Rental: $275

A library of 90 video clips on various aspects of supervision, plus a comprehensive guide for using the clips in a number of innovative ways.

Designed for maximum flexibility, The Supervisor Toolkit provides you with high-quality video vignettes that you can easily incorporate into your own custom training courses. The clips are drawn from CRM's library of best-selling programs. Each vignette/clip runs anywhere from 20 seconds to 3 minutes and depicts a common workplace interaction involving a supervisor and usually, a subordinate. Suggestions are provided in the Leader's Guide for using the clips to draw out specific lessons on supervision.

The 90 clips in the Toolkit are organized into the following supervisory skill categories:

* Hiring and Building Your Team
* Planning, Prioritizing, and Delegating Tasks
* Coaching and Training
* Motivating, Encouraging and Giving Positive Feedback
* Building Trust and Showing Respect
* Handling Conflict
* Performance Appraisals
* Discipline and Giving Constructive Feedback

Clips are provided in two formats:

Format 1: The clip is introduced with some brief narration to set up the scene and give a very general idea of what to look for in the vignette. As the introductory narration plays, key phrases and words are highlighted through on-screen graphics. The clip follows.

Format 2: The clip plays without any set-up narration.

Program may be previewed on either CD-Rom or DVD.
Program Contents:  Chaptered DVD with 2 versions of all clips: with introductory narration and without, 3 Chaptered CD-ROMs with 2 versions of all clips (also contains electronic Leader's Guide file) and Comprehensive Leader's Guide that includes key points, discussion questions and activity suggestions for every clip.
