Revenue can be unpredictable. Are your people focused on what matters most?

When business conditions are uncertain, priorities often change. Your employees need to understand what those priorities are and what success looks like now.

As HRBG President Amanda Veitch puts it:

“When revenue is uncertain, clarity around performance becomes even more important. Your people need to know what matters most and what success looks like.”

Effective performance reviews help create that clarity. They give leaders an opportunity to reset priorities, address performance gaps, recognize strong performance, and set clear expectations for what comes next.

A performance review shouldn't simply look back. It should help improve what happens next.

When did you last revisit performance expectations with your team?

Ontario’s minimum wage changes October 1.

The general minimum wage will increase from $17.60 to $17.95 per hour.

Other rates are changing too:

• Student: $16.90/hour
• Homeworker: $19.70/hour
• Hunting, fishing and wilderness guide rates are also increasing.

Employers should review payroll systems, employment agreements, budgets, and employee classifications before the new rates take effect.

Do you know which minimum wage categories apply to your employees?

Avoiding a difficult workplace conversation doesn’t make the issue disappear.

A concern gets left unaddressed. The message gets softened. Expectations stay unclear. An employee doesn’t know what happens next.

Then a manageable issue becomes a much harder conversation.

As HR Consultant Lindsay Martens puts it:

“The conversation you avoid today is often the difficult conversation you have to manage tomorrow.”

Clear communication doesn’t mean being harsh. It means addressing concerns as they arise, being honest about expectations, and making sure employees understand what needs to change and what happens next.

When a workplace conversation needs to happen, what tends to make it harder to address early: uncertainty about what to say, concern about the employee’s reaction, or the hope that the issue will resolve itself?

Leadership challenges rarely fit neatly into one category.

A performance conversation requires communication. Delegation requires trust. Team building requires self-awareness. Decision-making requires accountability.

Leadership skills work together.

That’s why HRBG’s Virtual Leadership Training brings six areas together in one program:

✔ Ethical Leadership
✔ Self-Awareness
✔ Communication
✔ Time Management
✔ Team Building
✔ Performance Management

Each session develops a different skill while connecting it to the everyday challenges leaders face.

📅 September 24 to October 29
🕙 Thursdays | 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM EST

Six weeks. One stronger leadership foundation.

Which of these six areas do you think has the biggest impact on how someone leads a team?
