About This Course

This course will equip managers with skills needed to manage staff with challenging behavior. We will explore different types of challenging behavior, and the consequences of letting them go unchallenged.

There will be a strong focus on how to prepare, conduct and follow-up difficult conversations with staff displaying challenging behavior.

Students will learn how to identify helpful and unhelpful norms in their teams, and how to develop positive norms, so as to prevent challenging behavior.

This course includes lectures and tasks. Students are strongly encouraged to complete these practical tasks, so as to apply learning to their reality.

What are the requirements?

    Informative and educational. Instructor was very knowledgeable. I was discouraged that I could not access the Word documents for case study, task, etc. Highly recommend the course though!

    this topic is fundamental in all human relations areas like work or social or home or anywhere as a consumer as challenging behavior appears to be the number 1 public enemy now with drugs and performance and competition in life everywhere.
