This one-day workshop on Tough Topics: Talking to Employees About Personal Hygiene helps trainers deliver the very best information to managers to help them deal with hygiene and appearance awareness issues. Office and workplace managers may be accustomed to dealing with employees who are late or miss deadlines, or staff members who cannot get along, but talking to an employee about their appearance and hygiene can be daunting.
In this comprehensive training course, we’ve created a framework for having those tough conversations, as well as some guidelines for customizing that framework for your organization. Then, we’ll look at some common tough conversations that present themselves, including body odor, flatulence, poor clothing or hair decisions, and bad breath. At the end of the workshop participants will have a chance to role play a tough situation, and they’ll walk away well prepared for any kind of challenging conversation.
As with all of Velsoft’s soft skills courseware, you have access to a complete suite of training materials to support you in delivering presentations on this tough topic! An instructor guide, student workbook, quick reference material, and more are at your fingertips.
