Course background
In the process of establishing a performance management system, it is very important to let the strategy of the enterprise truly land, decompose the strategic goals into each department, and quantify the performance goals of employees; but in actual work, there is often a "lack of unity of thought" in target management between superiors and subordinates, and it is impossible to reach a consensus, which not only affects the performance results of the team and individuals, but also affects the operation efficiency of the entire performance management system to varying degrees.
The root of the problem lies in the fact that managers' expectations of coordinated work are not done well. Sun Tzu said, "The Taoist, who makes the people and the Lord agree, can die with it, can live with it, and does not fear danger." Sun Wu stressed the importance of coordination of will between leaders and subordinates, which is particularly important in today's fast-changing VUCA era. If the goal is divorced from the subject, from the role, from human nature, then it is impossible to be clear and cannot be unified.
This course aims to help managers understand the importance of expected synergy to goal unification, master the "6-step method of expectation collaboration and goal unification" to rapidly improve management efficiency, and through the "leadership balance compass", find the inherent obstacles to their own leadership development, improve self-perception from the inside out, find the real focus of leadership development, and achieve a comprehensive breakthrough in influence and synergy.
