Performance Management and Appraisal for Managers Training Course in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania
Classroom training in Dar es Salaam · next cohort Oct 26, 2026 · from USD 2,000
Managers carry the real weight of staff performance, yet many dread appraisal season and avoid the conversations that would lift results. The opening day explains the full performance cycle and the manager's role in it, from planning to review. You then set SMART objectives and key results, agree performance standards, and monitor progress with regular check-ins, observation and records. Appraisal sessions cover rating methods, avoiding bias such as halo and recency effects, preparing evidence and running a balanced appraisal meeting.
The fourth day focuses on managing underperformance through diagnosis, coaching, performance improvement plans and, where needed, fair disciplinary steps, alongside development planning for strong performers. Advanced sessions then explore continuous feedback, 360-degree reviews, linking performance to rewards and building a high-performance culture. Role-plays let each manager rehearse a difficult appraisal and a feedback session with coaching from the trainer. Supervisors, line managers, heads of department and team leaders in any sector will find it practical. You return ready to run appraisals that are fair, motivating and backed by evidence.
