Managing Problem Employees
Tuition: $375 CEUs: 0.6
Instructor: Bobby Peterson, business consultant and speaker
1 session: Mon, Aug 24 / 9:00 a.m.–4:00 p.m.
Wondering what to do with a problem employee? Is this one of those
moments where you are asking yourself why you ever wanted to be
a manager? You are not alone. Despite managers’ best efforts to hire
smartly, they can end up with difficult problem employee situations
that put the business at risk. And this challenge becomes even more
troublesome when that employee does not believe that what they are
doing is a problem. Typically, past attempts by managers to correct
these situations have resulted in strong employee resistance including
refusal by the employee to rectify the problem. And ignoring the situation
can have severe negative consequences on workgroup morale
and business results. This unacceptable situation can be effectively
resolved. This no-nonsense workshop will provide the manager with
the proven techniques necessary to successfully handle these tricky
types of situations with their employees when they arise and the
skills to effectively and legally deal with the “problem employee.”
