We encourage all Human Service Zone Supervisors to attend.

Have you ever stalled on having a tough conversation and hoped it would magically fix itself? Same. In this workshop, we’ll practice the steps, as well as the messy parts, of progressive discipline - real scenarios, real documentation, and real talk - so when the moment comes, you’re ready. Come ready to jump in. Leave ready for anything.  ND Social Work CEU’s provided.
