Are you looking to change your performance process? The state of the workplace – with a focus on teams and new employee expectations – requires a total reimagining of the way organizations develop their people. The emphasis is on the employee experience with a shift away from bureaucracy and forced ranking toward more transparency and trust.

This Thursday at 2 p.m. EST Globoforce is teaming up with Brandon Hall Group for an HR Executive webinar that will dig into the effectiveness of performance development as it stands today.
