Today’s training session focuses on the importance of setting goals to guide and develop employee performance. We’ll examine the criteria for effective performance goals and cover the steps in the goal-setting and review process.
The information you learn in this session can help you strengthen the performance appraisal process as well as supervise and motivate your employees more successfully.

Developing the Coaching Skills for Your Managers and LeadersErin Boettge
What are the obligations of managers? The answer to this question varies from organization to organization based upon a number of factors such as industry, culture, department, skill level of the team, etc. Regardless of the organization, at the very heart of this question lies a dilemma.
Managers may have to perform well, depending upon a variety of situations at various places along a continuum, ranging from ensuring employees comply with established processes and procedures at one end, to career development and skill improvement towards the other end. Who’s to say which of the outcomes is more or less important?
In fact, we’d probably agree that the outcomes suggested by such a continuum are all important depending upon the situation. With so many possible outcomes and objectives legitimately competing for our managers’ attention, are there a set of uniform skills or competencies we can use to guide our managers ongoing training and development?
In this webinar you’ll learn:
Why coaching skills are important for your managers, leaders and organization
What is coaching and how to apply key skills to align with specific employees and situations
An overview of traditional coaching models and what you can do to improve them
How we can get managers to make time to coach
A “coaches toolkit” that includes emerging competencies for managers and leaders
The key difference between coaching and mentoring
People management is one of the most difficult areas of management nowadays. People are not machines, they are complicated, emotionally unstable and a good manager needs anticipate any possible issue that might appear in their job lives in order to maintain the team motivation and performance.

Hold a mirror up to the East and visualize new opportunities for helping these men look their best.

For some new managers, the idea of giving performance reviews and being responsible for others can be intimidating. For others, there are fears about how to manage people older than them. And then there are others who worry about being accepted by their new team. I too, had these fears. But over time, I have learned a lot from peers, from mentors, and from my own employees. I made some terrible mistakes, and I had some pretty good successes. These nuggets of insight are some of the best personal learnings I’ve had in my management career, and ones which I wish I knew when I started managing people.

Marcus Buckingham and Curt Coffman present the results of two major studies. One
offers findings from polling more than a million employees about their workplace needs.
The other is a 20-year study of how the methods of the world’s greatest managers
differ from those of lesser managers. This study involved interviews with more than
80,000 managers from 400 companies, the largest such investigation ever undertaken. The authors found key differences that fly in the face of traditional thinking about successful managerial practices. This astute, well-written report presents the major principles of great managers, and offers examples of leaders who put their knowledge of effective management into practice. The book’s conclusions rest on in-depth research, not theory.
This painstaking study authoritatively describes how employees feel about management
and explains exactly what great managers do, and why and how they achieve top results.Recommended it to everyone who manages, wants to manage or is managed.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

2. 1. DON’T LET THE POSITION GO TO
YOUR HEAD.
• You have not just become Grand Dictator of the Universe, so don’t begin
ordering people around and watching their every move. Did you find that
helpful when you were “just an employee”?
3. 2. BUT DON’T BE AFRAID TO ACT
LIKE A MANAGER.
• While you don’t want to go mad with power, you do need to become
comfortable with the power you now have. You must be able to provide
direction to your employees, give them feedback, help resolve problems,
and address performance issues. Otherwise, people will begin to view you as
a wimp.
4. 3. DISCUSS YOUR ROLE WITH
YOUR BOSS.
• Along with a new job, you probably have a new boss, so you need to be
clear on his or her expectations. Have a meeting to discuss any of the
following questions that might be useful: What are the most important goals
in my job? What is your view of my staff? What decisions do you want to be
involved in? How do you want me to share information with you? What are
your particular “hot buttons”? And any other questions that might be helpful.
5. 4. LEARN ABOUT THE
ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE.
• If you are in a new organization, take time to figure out the “lay of the land”.
Many people have made career-killing mistakes by failing to adapt to a
different way of doing things. Even if you have been with your organization
for a long time, you are now at a different level and need to learn about the
management culture. Your new boss and your new peer group can be very
helpful here.
6. 5. LEARN FROM YOUR ROLE MODELS.
• You have probably worked for several different managers in your life, so try
to take the best from each one and avoid their bad habits. As an employee,
what did you want from your manager? What motivated you? What turned
you off?
7. 6. GET TO KNOW PEOPLE AND LET
THEM GET TO KNOW YOU.
• Begin to hold regular staff meetings (and be clear on what those meetings
should accomplish). Take time to meet with employees individually to discuss
their work, get their view of the department’s strengths and weaknesses, and
find out what they need from you. Do the same with your new peer group.
You are now a member of a management team and need to be able to
work collaboratively with those colleagues. If your organization offers
“Transition Meetings” or “Assimilation Meetings”, talk with your Human
Resources department about having one.
8. 7. UNDERSTAND INDIVIDUAL
DIFFERENCES.
• You now have to manage a group of people who have different styles of
working, communicating, and making decisions. This is where you learn that
not everyone does things the way you do. But as long as the results are okay,
so is their work style.
9. 8. DISCUSS YOUR ROLE WITH
YOUR STAFF.
• If you were promoted over your peers, all of you need to adjust to the
change in roles. This will be easier if you talk about it with them.
Acknowledge that everyone is having to adjust, which may be a little
uncomfortable for awhile. Talk about your goals for the department and the
way that you like to work. Ask what questions they have about the change.
If you have joined a new organization, the transition is different, but the
conversation will still be helpful. You might also consider having your boss talk
with the staff about the goals for your department and why you were
selected to lead it.
10. 9. COMPARE YOUR LEADERSHIP
STYLE WITH YOUR PREDECESSOR.
• Under their previous manager, your staff became accustomed to a certain
way of doing things. They must now get used to a different set of
expectations and preferences. To help them adapt, encourage open
discussion of similarities and differences in leadership style. If you did not
know your predecessor, ask about his or her style and determine what you
are likely to do differently. Unless they are psychic, your staff can’t know how
expectations have changed unless you tell them.
11. 10. TALK WITH ANY STAFF MEMBER
WHO APPLIED FOR THE JOB.
• This may be uncomfortable, but it will help to move things along.
Acknowledge that you know they may be disappointed, but that you hope
the two of you will be able to work together. Ask if they have any advice for
you as you start this new job. If the person is a valuable employee, express
sincere appreciation for their contributions.
12. 11. IDENTIFY THE MOST IMPORTANT
GOALS OF THE DEPARTMENT.
• Write up an initial plan for your department and share it with your manager.
Once he or she has signed off, share the plan with your staff and ask for their
input. If this represents a big change, meet with each person individually to
discuss new expectations.
13. 12. MANAGE YOUR STRESS!
• A new management job can be stressful for awhile. If you’re feeling frazzled,
seek out some stress management tips and put them into practice. One
helpful hint: find someone outside of your work group to talk to about this
transition. A mentor, coach, or trusted friend can be a good sounding board
and stress reducer.
If you find that management is not for you, there are always other choices.
But the odds are that once you get through the learning curve, you are likely
to really enjoy your management role.
