– What’s an Employer to Do?
Join us for thie exciting new topic!

 

 

Nothing irks like jerks at work.  But difficult people in the workplace can be far more than a minor annoyance.  They can increase turnover … destroy morale … and even spark employee lawsuits.  One company was hit with a $325,000 verdict for allowing workplace bullying to go on – a judgment that was upheld on appeal.

The good news is that there are steps you can take TODAY that will insulate you from risk … improve productivity … and create a happier workplace.  Introducing Jerks at Work – What’s an Employer to Do?

Your 4-Point Plan for Managing Workplace Jerks

Jerks at Work is an interactive webinar designed specifically to help you deal with challenging workplace behaviors.  You’ll get step-by-step advice on what to do – and when to do it.

Attorney, author and celebrated speaker Jathan Janove combines humor, legal know-how and common sense to help you craft a strategy to deal with the jerks that lurk at work.  In this insightful 75-minute session, you’ll discover:
  • How to make jerk-free values part of your corporate culture
  • Three specific types of training to combat harassment
  • Verbal feedback to a jerk’s offensive behavior
  • Documenting workplace jerkiness – when and how
  • “Mushroom jerks” – how to expose them to the light
  • Seven steps to managing emotional or confrontational jerks
  • Due process and progressive discipline
  • Jerks who sue – good news and bad news
  • … and much more!

Do your jerks claim that age, gender or national origin makes them a member of a protected class?  Are they saying a “disability” causes (and protects) their jerkiness?  Is their union protecting them?  Jathan Janove will offer advice on dealing with all these situations – and many others.

And you’ll laugh while you learn.  Jathan Janove is consistently recognized as one of the most popular speakers at the annual SHRM conference and our Labor & Employment Law Advanced Practices (LEAP) Symposium.  Jerks at Work gives you the chance to ask him your questions – and benefit from his answers to you and your colleagues.
There are financial, business and legal repercussions to allowing workplace jerkiness – and substantial benefits to ending it.   Sign up for Jerks at Work – What’s an Employer to Do? TODAY!

Finally, Jathan has been acclaimed by HR and business groups throughout the United States for going beyond traditional HR theory to provide new ways to approach employment issues. For years, Jathan has been a popular speaker at the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) Annual Conference, and he is a member of the National Speakers Association (NSA).
