Join our Specialist Workshop

Give people practical skills to handle difficult conversations, workplace conflict and challenging interactions before problems escalate.

Strong technical expertise does not automatically prepare someone to lead people.

Managers need practical frameworks for setting expectations, giving feedback, coaching performance, managing change, building trust and making fair workplace decisions.

HR Australia’s leadership and people-management programs focus on the real situations managers face at work. We offer programs for new and emerging managers, experienced leaders and leadership teams, covering the practical skills needed to lead people effectively.


Programs within Leadership, Performance & People Management

Managing Everyday Performance

This program helps managers create the conditions for good performance and address concerns early.

Participants learn to set expectations, empower and develop their employees for success, evaluate performance, and explore possible causes of a gap and choose a proportionate next step.

Realistic scenarios allow leaders to practise informal and formal conversations while balancing clarity, respect, documentation and procedural fairness. The program reinforces performance management as an everyday leadership capability, not a process reserved for when performance expectations haven’t been met.

Designed for:
Managers, supervisors and team leaders responsible for employee performance.
