Peace of Pettiness:

Drama Downshift

Session Description: 

Workplace drama, gossip, and rumors are more than culture issues; when mishandled, they can create employment law risks involving harassment, retaliation, discrimination, privacy, and inconsistent discipline. In this highly participatory session, HR professionals and leaders will learn how to identify the legal and organizational risks behind difficult workplace behaviors, intervene with clarity and consistency, document concerns appropriately, and redirect unproductive conversations without escalating conflict or becoming part of the drama themselves.

 

Learning Objectives: 

Spot it -Identify the behaviors and conditions that fuel workplace drama

Stop it - Respond to gossip, rumors, and conflict with confidence and professional

Shift it - Build a culture of trust, accountability and respectful communication

 

Closing Reflection

Awareness: What role am I playing in the culture I want to create?

Impact: What is one leadership behavior I will model starting tomorrow that will replace drama with trust, respect and accountability?
