You work as a manager of a financial management organization.
You are responsible for the accountants who perform professional audits for organizations seeking to reduce financial risk and better understand their financial position. A member of your team, George, is not meeting performance expectations. Several clients have complained that he has not provided them with information to reduce their risk and offers very little feedback on improving the management of their finances. In reviewing George’s work and meeting with him, you discover that he lacks some of the skills necessary to identify risks an organization is facing.

You also notice his reports are not well-written and are difficult to understand.

Discuss how you could use training to help George build the skills necessary to do the job.
