SUMMARY:Unconscious Bias In the Workplace: Strategies to Avoid Unwittingly Marginalizing Employees
DESCRIPTION:All human beings have biases (both positive and negative). They are mental “shortcuts” we use that may or may not reflect something true about the person(s) with whom we are interacting. We draw inferences from our own lives and experiences that we then unconsciously assume are true in all situations. These assumptions can lead to improper stereotyping and marginalization of individuals. \nFor example\, one might assume that because someone is: \n\nyoung\, they must be fluent with technology; or\nof Latin American descent\, they must know how to speak Spanish.\n\nUnconscious bias in the workplace not only harms the workplace culture & productivity\, but can potentially create costly liability for the organization. \nThis seminar looks at the impact of unconscious bias in the workplace and provides solutions for managers to avoid unwittingly marginalizing employees. \n  \nPresented by: Nicholas J. Fiorenza\, Ferrara Fiorenza PC \n  \nLunch 11:30 – Noon\nSeminar Noon – 1:30 \n  \nRegister Here \n

SUMMARY:Performance Appraisals Done Right
DESCRIPTION:Employee performance appraisals are all too often a lost opportunity. Done right\, in a thoughtful and straightforward manner\, they serve as a linchpin of effective communication and employee feedback. Done in a rote\, rushed or “let’s just get this done” manner\, they (at best) send mixed messages and at worse expose your organization to significant legal liability. \nThis workshop presents a practical guide to the design and use of effective performance appraisal systems. It also identifies the potential legal pitfalls associated with them. \nSubtopics Include: \n\n“Management by Objectives”\nmaking performance evaluation a way of life in your organization\nimplementing effective performance and development systems\nhow to conduct an effective employee appraisal interview\nhow to manage a “non-performer”\n\nPresented by: Nicholas J.

SUMMARY:What You May Not Know About Employee Documentation
DESCRIPTION:Managers and supervisors are all too familiar with the human resources mantra of “document\, document\, document”. It is almost as if simply writing down seemingly important aspects of workplace issues is in itself a solution to the challenges of legal compliance and leadership. Too often\, however\, workplace documentation creates an additional problem for employment counsel to overcome in court or during an administrative investigation. This back-to-basics workshop is a review of what you may not know about documentation – what it actually is\, how it is used\, and the five deadly mistakes managers and supervisors make time and time again. \nWho should attend? \n\nOwners\nTop managers\nHuman resources staff\nTrainers and others associated with the development of strategies for managing people in your organization\n\nPresented by: Nicholas J. Fiorenza of Ferrara Fiorenza PC \nLunch served 11:30-12:00\nPresentation begins at 12:00 \n\n\n \nPowered by Eventbrite
