Dealing with Toxic Employees Masterclass

We have all had the experience of having to deal with a toxic employee. Employees who are cynical, political, aggressive and generally counter-productive have a massive impact on the well-being of their colleagues and on the productivity of organisations. This workshop will deal with this issue on the most practical levels – how to avoid the problem in the first place and then how to deal with it once you have it. Topics covered will include:

• How to avoid hiring toxic employees – psychological markers.
