Ramada Plaza Park Place Dartmouth

Wednesday 15 April 2015 from 10:45a.m. to 12:15p.m.

Topic:  Changing problem behavior without discipline

In this entertaining and content-rich presentation, human dynamics coaches George Raine and Maxime Labbé will show you their proven Turnaround Interview® technique for coaching employees to break bad workplace habits without using or threatening discipline.  The technique corrects minor but persistent problems like lateness, excessive breaks, missing deadlines, negative comments, improper use of work time, and similar behaviours. 

Already proven in manufacturing, high-tech, government, hospital, , and educational settings, this progressive approach to dealing with sticky problems is producing dramatic results in about 90% of cases. 

Learn how and why people naturally defend their bad workplace habits and why they resist change.  George and Max will show you how to use that knowledge overcome that resistance and how to make the change stick.  But it won’t be easy at first!  You’ll need to learn techniques for controlling the flow of the conversation and for phrasing your questions to get the best chance of success.  Rooted in a sound understanding of human nature, this new, high-impact approach to employee coaching will get you rethinking your instinctive approaches to these tough conversations with employees.
