You have an underperformer on your team, and the manager expects action this week?
92% of managers use PIP as a formality before termination. The result — $28,000+ to replace an employee, months of hiring, and zero improvement in the team. And HR ends up with the reputation of a “paper pusher.”
This course offers a different approach. In just 3 sessions, you will build a PIP that actually works: with measurable goals, a conversation script, and a support plan. Students who implement this methodology bring up to 44% of underperformers back to normal performance — instead of wasting 6–9 months of salary on replacements.
What’s inside the course:
Step 1 — Diagnosis.
Learn when a PIP is truly needed and when feedback, coaching, or PDP is enough. Master the Root Cause Diagnostic and three types of underperformance: skill gap, will gap, system gap. Calculate the true cost of replacement (50–200% of annual salary) and get a 15-scenario checklist to decide “PIP or not?” in 10 minutes.
Step 2 — Building the PIP.
Create a real PIP for an employee in your company step by step: 7 mandatory elements that protect both the company and the employee. See live examples for three common issues — reporting errors, missed deadlines, and conflicts. Get a library of 50+ SMART goal statements and a word-for-word PIP conversation script: plan delivery, mid-check-in, and final meeting (success or exit). Learn legal nuances and use AI prompts to generate goals and check compliance.
Step 3 — Implementation.
Build a full PIP process in your company: RACI roles matrix, initiation calendar, and adaptations for new hires, senior specialists, and remote teams. Set up a dashboard with 5 key metrics (Success Rate, PIP-to-Termination Rate, Post-PIP Retention, Time to Improvement, Legal Claim Rate) and benchmarks. Get a 30-minute manager training program, scripts for handling 5 common objections, and a ROI calculator to defend the process to your CEO. Walk away with a 3-month implementation roadmap.
6 ready-to-use tools you’ll take away:
PIP Readiness Checklist — 15 scored scenarios
PIP Template — core 7-section template (40% pre-filled)
PIP Conversation Script — exact wording for 3 meetings
PIP Goals Library — 50+ SMART goal examples
PIP Process Roadmap — 3-month rollout plan

Plus 5 AI prompts to automate PIP workflows in Claude and ChatGPT.
