Bad attitudes, jealousy and disruptive behaviour will lower your organizations collective morale, lower personal self-esteem and reduce teamwork and productivity. When uncivil, toxic behaviour infects a organization at any level, managers may be tempted to ignore it or give in, the wrong thing to do, but tolerating it is not a solution!
This session will show you how to neutralize gossip and put a system in place to ensure it does not re-occur, starting with that of Zero Tolerance and workplace reprimands. The destructive effects of blaming others, griping, pessimism and of always passing the buck needs to be stopped. In this session, you will learn to keep emotional control and tame disruptive and destructive behaviour.
