Program Information

You may happen to work with a colleague or a direct report who is difficult to please. They may have a special opinion and never want to compromise or they may think they are always right and everyone else is wrong. They want to do things their own way and poor you if you obey. Being snappy and arguing can be their norm, at the same time they still can perform very well. The speakers will share approaches and methods to manage difficult employees, including corrective and preventive measures, supported by real-life examples.

This is a 30 minute internet media player video of a voice over slide show.
A quiz concluding the presentation will summarize the topic and evaluate your understanding of the material.
