LinkedIn Learning- Recommended Course of the Week

Working with High Conflict People as a Manager

~44 minutes

Managers need to work with all types of people, even those considered to be difficult or high-conflict people. Learn how to manage and lead high-conflict people and guide them towards positive behavioral change. In this course, executive educator Marlene Chism explains how to recognize high-conflict behaviors and irresponsible language, redirect and communicate more effectively, ask employees for change, and understand the cultural roadblocks that make it hard to manage and confront difficult behavior.


All employees can utilize LinkedIn Learning: SLCC Learn

or

No prior experience or registration required. Just join when you can. If you’d like to receive weekly web-ex reminders, please send your email and your department name to Andrea (andrea.malouf@slcc.edu) or Heidi (heidi.o’donoghue@slcc.edu). Or just email with questions.
