Your crash course to handle any difficult work conversation with ease

Substandard performance … rude behavior …. personal hygiene … mask/vaccine violations … Zoom misbehavior … terminations.

Most supervisors and HR professionals never learned how to handle these uncomfortable conversations with employees. So they typically fumble through the words or, worse, avoid the confrontation until a minor issue becomes a major problem.

On February 25, learn exactly what to say in any kind of difficult or awkward conversation with your employees. In this dynamic training webinar, best-selling author Paul Falcone will give strategies (and precise wording) to take the stress and legal liability out of these tough talks.

This interactive workshop is a practical, solutions-based guide for any business leader who needs some guidance on what to say after “Got a minute?” You’ll learn real-world tactics and sample wording for even the most awkward employee discussions.
