    Dealing With Disgruntled Employees

    02_Disgruntled-Employee.jpg

    It all started innocently enough. Angie Agent was having problems on the job (tardiness, excessive absences, performance, personality issues, etc.). You, the conscientious Supervisor and fair-minded person, gave the employee a warning. Things did not improve. Angie actually developed an "attitude," and the conduct continued. Another warning. Nothing. Tired of the problems, you terminated Angie. You conducted the termination exactly as counsel advised and diligently documented everything...Sound familiar? 

    Our speaker this month will share techniques for effectively dealing with angry or dissatisfied employees learned from his experience as a practicing attorney representing employers. Join us April 8th
