As never before the front line supervisor or team leader must travel a narrow ridge between aggressively attacking performance problems and conduct but in a nondiscriminatory manner and void of harassment type behavior.
State and federal courts have clarified the circumstances under which an employer may be held liable for harassment by supervisors and employees. This supervisor counseling and harassment training workshop is intended to provide the supervisor or team leader with knowledge to enable them to pursue their job responsibilities with a clear understanding of the behavioral expectations of themselves and their employees. Counseling training is used after employee performance analysis has taken place and the supervisor's coaching efforts have failed to produce the desired behavior change. Supervisor counseling harassment training is becoming more of a critical proactive event to avoid harassment inquires from lawyers and government agencies.

• Coach and counsel as the situation dictates
