SUMMARY:Managing Performance Without HR Software: Simple Systems for Small Teams
DESCRIPTION:Join ECO Canada and our partners at Fort McMurray Wood Buffalo Economic Development & Tourism for an interactive webinar on building a practical performance management process that works for growing organizations.  Discover how to create a structured approach to managing employee performance without the complexity or cost of dedicated HR software. \nThe workshop will be 60 minutes\, followed by a 30-minute question period. \nWhat Types of Organizations Should Attend?\n\nSmall organizations with approximately 5–50 employees that may not have extensive HR resources\nDo not have a dedicated HR team and rely on founders\, owners\, or managers to handle HR responsibilities.\nHave one HR professional responsible for most or all HR functions\, with limited access to an HRIS or performance management platform.\nHave managers or team leads overseeing employee performance but lack a formal\, consistent process.\nCurrently manage performance through informal conversations\, spreadsheets\, Word documents\, forms\, or other manual methods and are looking for a more structured approach.\n\n  \nWhat You’ll Learn:\n\nDevelop a practical and effective performance management process using existing tools and resources.\nMove from informal performance discussions to a more consistent and measurable framework.\nCreate clear performance expectations\, feedback processes\, and documentation practices.\nImplement and manage performance tracking without investing in costly HR software.\nLeverage simple tools such as Excel and customizable templates to support performance conversations and development.\n\n  \nKey Takeaways:\nLeave with practical ideas and tools you can actually implement\, rather than simply understanding the theory of performance management. \nYou will be shown that they do not necessarily need to purchase an HRIS to establish a structured performance management process. You can start with a simple manual system or an Excel-based system and build from there. \n  \nSpeaker:\n \nAndrew Janzik \nAndrew Janzikc\, currently HR Business Partner at ECO Canada has over 12 years of experience supporting employers with workplace policies\, recruitment\, retention\, employee relations\, performance management\, diversity and inclusion initiatives\, and workforce development.
