Here’s a suggested structure for your presentation:

Title Slide:

Conducting Effective Performance Evaluations

Slide 1: Introduction

  • Purpose of Performance Evaluations

  • Enhances employee performance and development.

  • Aligns individual goals with organizational goals.

  • Provides a basis for promotions, raises, and feedback. Intro: Before I introduce myself I could start talking about recently events on the world; asking small talk questions: like: “how are you today Slide 1: Introduction Hook

1. Get Your Audience's Attention

  • Ask a Thought-Provoking Question

  • “Have you ever wondered why some employees excel while others struggle, despite having similar skills and opportunities?”

  • Share a Surprising Statistic

  • “Did you know that companies with strong performance management systems are 50% more likely to outperform their competitors?”

  • Tell a Relatable Story

  • “Let me tell you about an employee named Sarah who transformed her career after a single, effective performance evaluation…”

2. Amazing Facts or Stories as a Starting Point

  • Why They Work

  • Captivate the Audience

  • Stories and surprising facts grab attention because they are unexpected and relatable. They create an emotional connection that engages the audience from the start.

  • Make the Topic Relevant

  • By sharing a story or fact that is directly related to performance evaluations, you make the topic feel real and important to your audience. It sets the stage for why they should care about the content of your presentation.

  • Create a Memorable Introduction

  • A powerful story or surprising fact is easier to remember than plain information. It ensures that your audience will recall the key points of your presentation long after it’s over.

  • Example of an Opening Hook

“Good morning, everyone. Before we dive into the nuts and bolts of conducting performance evaluations, I want to share a quick story with you. There was once an employee named John who was on the brink of leaving his job due to a lack of feedback and direction. His manager, unaware of this, conducted a thorough performance evaluation, highlighting John’s strengths and areas for growth, and set clear, achievable goals for him. Not only did John stay with the company, but he also became one of the top performers within a year. This story isn’t unique; it’s a testament to the power of effective performance evaluations. Today, we’ll learn how to create such impactful evaluations for our team.”
