Managers and supervisors face a myriad of business and people problems. One of the most challenging is handling an employee who is not performing up to standards. Often the initial supervisory response is, “Bar-b-que the turkey!” Yet this sidesteps responsibilities management has to both employee and employer. A better approach is to make a “best effort” to turn the employee into a fully performing member of the organization.

Managers and supervisors have four basic tools for employee motivation and improvement: discipline, punishment, withholding rewards and giving rewards. This fast paced, highly interactive program focuses on the discipline option ... in a positive manner. Well structured, rational discipline using the tools presented in this program results in a more consistent, fairer and more effective application of discipline for the organization. And it provides a clear structure for managers and supervisors to handle a difficult part of their job. Positive discipline gives positive results.
