Stop Being Write-Up Trigger Happy!

from Ask HR! with Youseline Poteau-Young · host Youseline Poteau-Young

Being trigger happy with write-ups is not leadership. Documentation matters, but it’s not a substitute for coaching. Jumping straight to corrective action without having the hard conversations first can create: Resentment Confusion Disengagement A coaching conversation today can prevent a formal disciplinary action tomorrow. Key Takeaway: Coach First. Write Up Later. Lead Like A HUMAN!, and with impact. Learn how to balance accountability with development and transform the way your team experiences leadership.
