Corrective Action

( WT-3562-180 )


     Course DescriptionBack To Top

Course Offered in Partnership With DigitalThink

The Corrective Action course provides students with the skills to facilitate their employees' improvement, instead of merely disciplining them. The course covers when and how to apply corrective action, and provides strategies for motivating employees to improve. Students will learn to use a range of corrective modes in a balanced and objective manner, including applying the progressive disciplinary model, documenting corrective action through a standard documentation template, and counseling employees towards improvement in a professional manner. The facilitator, Diane Allessi, currently works for the American Bankers Association as the manager of instructional design. She has managed operations and sales staff in traditional banking offices. Her training career has focused on sales, management, leadership, and professional development courses.
