Briefings Audio Conference

Workplace Drill Sergeants - "Combat Tactics" for Workplace Bullies

Co-Sponsored By: Thompson Interactive

They are everywhere in all different levels of organizations -- bullies. They get results, but the body count they leave behind them takes an immense toll on any organization. No one wants to admit that they exist and no one wants to address them, especially since they relish destroying others . . . and their careers.

Be on the forefront of understanding the way the law is developing to address these individuals and the unrecognized liability they may be creating for your organization by registering to attend this audio conference. By the end of this 90-minute, interactive session, you’ll be armed with numerous practical strategies for handling them that go beyond legal compliance, especially when they reside at very high levels in your organization.

Your speaker is business expert, Margaret N. Morford, President for “The HR Edge, Inc.,” an international management consulting and training company. Her clients have included “Lockheed Martin,” “Chevron,” “Time Warner,” “Sara Lee Foods,” “HGTV,” “Nationwide Insurance,” “Deloitte,” “Blue Cross/ Blue Shield,” and various local and state governments. Ms. Morford has also worked as an attorney, specializing in employment law and has been Vice President of Human Resources for three large companies. In addition, she is often quoted in “The Wall Street Journal,” “The New York Times,” “The Chicago Tribune,” “USA Today” and “Entrepreneur” and appears regularly on local “ABC,” “CBS” and “Fox” television affiliates.

Learning Objectives:

  1. A working definition of what constitutes bullying at work
  2. An understanding of why it’s so prevalent in today’s workplace
  3. The latest legal cases that may force employers to deal with bully issues
  4. Useful business statistics to persuade organizations to begin dealing with their bullies
  5. Seventeen “stealth” strategies for getting organizations to address their bullies even at the higher levels
