Managing employee performance is one of the most difficult and legally sensitive responsibilities of every supervisor.

This practical webinar will provide supervisors, managers, HR professionals, and executives with the knowledge and tools needed to handle disciplinary issues confidently and consistently. Participants will learn how to recognize when coaching should become discipline, properly document performance concerns, conduct effective disciplinary meetings, avoid common legal pitfalls, and support a workplace culture built on accountability and respect.
