Work Systems Affiliates International Establishes Performance Management Practice Group

Best Practices in Performance Management and New 2-Day Performance Feedback Workshop.

Auburn, MA, July 02, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Work Systems Affiliates International (http://www.wsa-intl.com), a strategy and leadership development firm serving both commercial and government sectors, announced the establishment of their new Performance Management Practice Group.

“In today's economy, companies are focused on doing more with less. One of the keys to accomplishing that goal is maximizing employee contributions -- something we have been helping clients do for over 25 years. By creating a separate practice group focused exclusively on best practices in performance management will provide even greater benefit to current and future clients” explained Paul Plotczyk, President of Work Systems Affiliates.

In addition to performance management consulting, the cornerstone offering from the new group will be a 2-Day Performance Feedback Workshop. “Providing quality feedback is the most underutilized "tool" in any manager's toolkit when it comes to ways to develop employees and improve performance. Our 2-Day workshop will help leaders craft performance feedback messages that drive high performance and minimize defensiveness, conflict and confrontation.” commented Jamie Resker, Director of the newly formed practice group.

“When performance issues are mishandled or avoided the organizational consequences can be huge. We have always helped clients with performance issues but having Jamie Resker head up the dedicated practice group will provide a level of knowledge and expertise that will serve our client base well. We are delighted to have her on board” stated Dr. Paul Stimson, Managing Partner.

“I am thrilled to be adding Performance Management Consulting and the new 2-Day workshop to our product and service offerings. I think the 2-Day workshop will be very popular since delivering difficult feedback is part of nearly everyone’s job. I think this is an elegantly simple tool - everyone can use it. And considering the organizational cost of replacing employees, everyone should use it. It only helps job satisfaction and retention.” added Beth Chartier, Director of Business Development.
