Managing difficult employees is one of the most stressful parts of leadership—but it doesn't have to be.

This leaves them feeling frustrated, worried about legal exposure, and uncertain if they're making the right call. In this live training, you'll get a clear, step-by-step framework for handling every type of employee challenge. You'll learn how to have coaching conversations that actually work, when to implement progressive discipline, how to recognize defensiveness and insubordination, and most importantly—how to know when it's time to transition from coaching to formal corrective action.
