The exercise focused on equipping staff with the necessary skills to effectively fill out the planning stage of the appraisal process for the 2025 work and performance targets.
The training, which forms part of the Ministry's ongoing efforts to enhance operational efficiency and workforce productivity, aimed to streamline planning activities to ensure the achievement of set targets in the upcoming year. Participants were guided through the proper steps for documenting key deliverables, setting measurable goals, and aligning individual objectives with the broader vision of the Ministry.
Speaking at the training session, A representative of the Director of Human Resource at MLGCRA, Miss Naomi Addo, emphasized the importance of structured planning in driving organizational success. She noted that the e-SPAR platform provides a standardized framework for tracking and evaluating performance, thereby fostering accountability and encouraging continuous improvement among staff.
“This initiative ensures that every team member understands their role and expectations clearly, which is crucial for meeting both personal and institutional goals. By enhancing our supervisors' capacity to use e-SPAR effectively, we are laying a solid foundation for maximum output in 2025,” she stated.
Participants expressed their appreciation for the training, describing it as timely and essential. One supervisor remarked, “This session has clarified the appraisal process for us and will help us plan better for our teams. It’s a great step towards improving productivity and ensuring accountability.”
