Description
Imagine a company where every employee knows exactly what’s expected of them, receives regular constructive feedback, and feels motivated by a fair and transparent evaluation process. That’s the power of effective employee evaluation — and in this course, you’ll discover how to make it a reality.

Most organizations evaluate performance, but few do it well. Vague criteria, untrained managers, and inconsistent methods lead to confusion, frustration, and lost potential. If your company’s evaluation process feels more like a formality than a growth tool, it’s time to fix that.

This course dives deep into thefull spectrum of employee evaluation techniques— from traditional KPI assessments to modern 360-degree feedback systems, competency-based reviews, and behavioral scoring models. We don’t just talk about what exists — we give you the tools, templates, and real-world examples to implement them immediately.

You’ll explore how different evaluation systems work, when to use each, how to avoid bias, and how to align employee assessments with company goals. We also cover legal and ethical considerations, documentation practices, and how to turn evaluation data into development plans.

Whether you’re launching a new evaluation process or fixing a broken one, this course gives you a structured roadmap.
