Building Confidence, Consistency, and Fairness in Employee Discipline
Employee performance and conduct issues are among the most challenging responsibilities supervisors and HR professionals face — especially in fast-paced manufacturing environments. Corrective Action in Manufacturing: How to Solve “People Problems” is a four-part, online training series designed to bridge the gap between written policy and real-world practice. Across four engaging 90-minute sessions, participants learn how to navigate disciplinary challenges with clarity, consistency, and confidence.
Through interactive case studies, real-world examples, and guided discussions, attendees will develop the emotional intelligence, communication skills, and practical tools needed to address performance and behavior issues ethically and effectively. Registration includes the full series, a participant workbook, and reference guides.
