Program Description: Modifying Unacceptable Employee Behavior & Improving Employee Performance
Session #8 - Certificate in Supervision Series


In the first seven sessions we discuss many different methods and practices to improve employee performance and deal with unacceptable employee behavior. In this session we will pull all the options explored in the first seven sessions together to assist the participants in looking at situations in the broadest context possible and help them pick the best alternative to deal with unacceptable employee behavior or improve employee productivity. (Whether it be coaching, conflict resolution, discipline, EAP referral or one of the other alternatives that was presented in the first seven sessions.) The main areas to be covered will include:

• Discussion of reasons why good employees can become problem employees.
• Review how organizations and supervisors can contribute to the problem and make it even worse by what they do or fail to do.
• Discuss how to involve the union in the process of dealing with a problem employee.
• Review the tools available to supervisors to assist them in modifying unacceptable employee behavior.
• Go through a case study on “Modifying Employee Behavior”.
• Review and discuss the book “Walk a While in My Shoes” (participants will receive a copy of the book).
• Explore options on how to improve employee performance and develop action plans that can be used after the program has concluded.


SPECIAL PROGRAMMING NOTE:
CVMIC'S Supervisor Series
"A Certificate in Supervision"


When an employee moves into a supervisor position their duties and responsibilities change dramatically. While they normally have strong technical skills they often lack some of the supervisor/manager knowledge and skill to be as truly successful as they could be. The Certificate in Supervision program is designed to provide new supervisors or soon to be new supervisors with training on a wide range of supervisory/management topics. This should assist them in building the skills necessary to do their jobs as effectively as possible.

Participants can attend all eight two-day sessions or they can attend which ever sessions most apply to their job. In order to receive a “Silver” Certificate in Supervision a participant has to attend at least four sessions including sessions 1 & 2. To receive a “Gold” Certificate in Supervision a participant must attend all eight sessions.

The first seven sessions are free standing programs that can be taken in any order. The material in session #8 is a culmination of material from the first seven sessions. While not required, participants are encouraged to complete sessions 2, 3, 4, 6 & 7 prior to taking this session.

The format for each session combines lecture with numerous other teaching techniques with time devoted to practicing the skills being taught through the use of role plays, case studies, small group discussions and group problem solving exercises. Participants are normally grouped in five different areas; Police, Fire/EMS, DPW/Utilities/Parks, City Hall and Library/Recreation. The material for the practice sessions is geared toward each of these specific disciplines. This allows for a more realistic experience.

CVMIC offers all eight sessions at least once each spring and fall and we vary the location between Milwaukee, the Fox River Valley and the Madison area. These sessions are available to new supervisors, experienced supervisors or individuals who are not supervisors today but would like to be a supervisor in the future.
