Accomplishing More with Less
INTRODUCING THE NEW
PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT CERTIFICATE
Friday, April 3, 2015, 8:30am-4:30pm
Training Center North, Torrey Pines Center North
This workshop covers topics such as managing time, priorities,
interruptions, email, calendar, and to-do lists. Participants will
learn how to work more strategically instead of working harder
while methodically managing competing priorities, and turn
stressful situations into opportunities.
Performance management is an ongoing process of
communication between a supervisor and an employee that
centers on setting expectations, objectives and goals; giving
and receiving feedback; coaching, engaging, and developing
employees; and evaluating results.
Maximizing Generational Diversity
There are two options available to obtain the certificate:
1. Complete four instructor-led workshops
2. Complete eight online modules and two instructor-led
workshops
Tuesday, April 7, 2015, 8:30am-11:30am
Training Center North, Torrey Pines Center North
This workshop explores tools that can enhance the productivity

characteristics of each generation, sources and solutions for
misunderstanding, and suggestions on using diversity
productively in the workplace.
