Do You Need a Personal Board of Directors?

Do you have a personal Board of Directors?  Is there a trusted group of people out there you can tap to guide you, provide feedback on your ideas, or offer encouragement when you’re unsure which professional step to take?

Managing Bad Workplace Behavior

Managing Bad Workplace Behavior

Poor or offensive behavior in the workplace must be confronted early and decisively. Lack of action may cause people to assume such behavior is acceptable to leadership, potentially prompting anger, low morale, or even spawning more negative behavior. Although some behavior must result in prompt firing or even legal action, for less serious issues, a three step framework can be helpful in dealing with bad workplace behavior. Those three steps are: confronting the behavior, devising an action plan, and planning for the future.
