Troublesome Topics [ 7-12 ]


Sponsored By:



Answers to the most difficult management situations

During the course of your career, you’ll come across situations that put your management skills to the test. Chances are you’ve already encountered a few. These “troublesome topics” deal with delicate subject matter and involve high stakes. Saying or doing the wrong thing might alienate an employee, land your company in legal hot water, or even cost you your job!

Ragan’s Management Resources has teamed up with HR expert Carol Hacker to offer a Webinar that covers exactly what you should—and shouldn’t—do in the most problematic management situations. She’ll share stories from more than 25 years in management and HR that will give you a clear roadmap to navigate otherwise treacherous paths.

Certain situations make even seasoned managers uneasy.

  • Death in the family
  • Chronic tardiness or absenteeism
  • Disruptive home-life issues
  • Hygiene problems
  • Inappropriate material on the computer
  • Dishonesty
