Why should you attend?

Are you an HR Professional? Is one of your least favorite parts of your job to have those uncomfortable and awkward conversations? We know you are the first line of defense (and complaint) in a company. All issues, problems, and personality clashes end up on your front door, and you are expected to deal with them. 

Do you dread having those conversations? How do you tell an employee that another employee has been complaining about them? How about uncomfortable conversations about compliance? Or unacceptable work practices. I’ll bet they don’t get easier with time either when you dread them.

HR Professionals have the unenviable job of having difficult conversations. It won’t be easy. It won’t be fun. It needs to be done. Learn to have them easily and professionally by following this easy formula.
