Retaliation

  • When employees speak up, it’s important to handle their concerns the right way and to avoid anything that might look like retaliation.

In six brief slides, this deck reveals everything your managers need to know when employees come to them with a concern, like how to (1) handle the conversation, (2) support their team through an investigation, and (3) avoid and address peer retaliation. 

Wanna pull the non-retaliation curtain back even more? Add this micromodule to the Annual Refresher Course or What to do when an employee raises a concern module, or pair it with our What is retaliation? or What is social retaliation? job aids.

  • This micromodule equips your managers to create a speak-up culture that empowers employees to voice their concerns.

In seven brief slides, the journey starts with explaining why employees might not feel comfortable raising concerns, and continues with several stops along the way: (1) how to foster open communication, (2) handling mistakes tactfully (including their own!) and (3) when and how to invite  employees to raise concerns. 

Add this micromodule to the Annual Refresher Course, What to do when an employee raises a concern module, or couple it with the Creating a Speak-up Culture job aid or video to drive the point home.
