MasterClass - Managing Problem Employees
I’m betting you’re a good person – reasonable in your expectations, respectful of other peoples’ feelings, quick to praise, slow to criticize and eager to live by the Golden Rule.
So why is it that some of your people keep doing things that bring your whole team down and make you look like the village idiot?
Why do you end up leaving work stressed and frustrated and ready to throw in the towel?
And wake up the next morning wanting to call in sick and crawl back under the covers?
Short answer: you’re stuck with managing human beings – and human beings have the endless ability to make things difficult.
Slightly longer answer: You haven’t had a chance to learn the absolutely key, simple, straightforward techniques that can make YOU the kind of manager other managers envy and admire – the kind whose team is happy, loyal and as productive as all get out.
Problem Employees: If You Can’t Live WITH Them and You Can’t Live WITHOUT Them, You’d Better Find Out How to Fix Them
Let’s start out by looking at 4 key facts about managing people today:
1. Every manager – even the most successful — is confronted by difficult people from time to time. What makes the successful ones successful is their ability to deal with bad behavior and turn trash into treasure.
2. The annoying person who’s driving everyone nuts is usually good at their job – so getting rid of them’s not the answer.
3. Even if you’d love to fire a toxic employee, you may not be able to tolerate the threat of a lawsuit or the time it takes for their replacement to get up to speed.
4. At the same time, you KNOW that if you don’t do something, your problem employee is going to spread their poison, kill morale and make your life miserable. One bad apple really CAN spoil the whole bunch.

Then you need to know that help is on the way – in the form of a short (90 minutes), intensive and (amazingly enough) enjoyable tele-seminar that reveals all the powerful strategies and tactics you need to defuse tension, derail problem behavior and defang even the most malicious employee.
So you can manage those difficult people effectively, get them to be team players, and make yourself a hero.
