SHRM Guam invites you our September Breakfast Briefing "Getting Back to the Basics of Performance" with Theresa C. Obispo, SVP/Chief Human Resource Officer at Bank of Guam. This Breakfast Briefing is practical conversation for leaders on building a culture of accountability, clarity, coaching, and consistent performance. Performance management doesn’t have to be complicated. At its core, it is about making sure employees understand what is expected, how they are doing, what support they need, and what happens when expectations are not met. This session is designed to bring leaders back to the basics of performance—providing practical tools and straightforward guidance to help managers lead performance conversations with greater confidence and consistency.

By the end of this briefing, leaders will walk away with a refreshed understanding of the fundamentals of effective performance management and practical approaches they can begin using immediately.

Because effective performance management isn't about waiting for the annual evaluation.

It starts with clear expectations. It continues with meaningful conversations. It requires consistent accountability. And it succeeds when leaders are willing to address performance—early, fairly, and directly.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?

This briefing is designed for anyone who leads, supervises, coaches, or is responsible for employee performance, including:

• Managers and Supervisors
• Department Heads and Directors
• Assistant Managers and Team Leads
• Newly Promoted Leaders
• Emerging Leaders and Leadership Development Participants
• HR Professionals and HR Business Partners
• Senior Leaders and Executives

Whether you are a seasoned leader or new to managing people, this session is an opportunity to refresh the fundamentals, strengthen your approach, and ensure we are all speaking the same language when it comes to performance, accountability, coaching, and employee development. If you have employees, you have a role in performance management.

Come grab some breakfast, bring your questions, and let’s get back to the basics of performance.
