effective and accurate performance reviews.
Forum 4 - The One on One: Strengthening Relationships
Start the New Year off right! Building a relationship with each member of your team is important as a manager. Through the simple
practice of the One on One meeting you not only strengthen your relationships with staff but improve communication and performance
among your team. During this session, you will learn about the many benefits of One on One meetings and be provided with practical
steps needed to hold, monitor and implement successful One on Ones for your team.
Forum 5 - Compliance and the Role of the Manager
Managers are very important in helping CARE meet our compliance goals. In this one hour forum, we will look at the skills of the manager in three
dimensions - Business, Technical, and People Management - and discuss how knowledge in these three areas will help you recognize when compliance
concerns may arise, understand CARE's policies or donor rules and regulations, and know how to work with your team to achieve compliance.
In addition to this valuable discussion, you will be provided with useful resources to support the critical role you play in helping CARE reach
its compliance goals.
Forum 6 - Increasing Potential: The Manager as a Coach
In this session we will define your role as a coach and show you how to increase the potential in your employees. You will learn how and when
to coach and the benefits that come from effective coaching - for you and for your employees. The interactive presentation will allow you to see
how much you've learned and provide you an opportunity to clarify any points. After this session, you will have a wealth of practical tips to help
you be a better coach.
