Webinar Overview:

Whether you are setting expectations, evaluating performance, coaching, counseling, disciplining, terminating, or memorializing a key event, words matter. In fact, how you document, when, how often, and how you follow up on your documentation all have legal and non-legal implications for your workplace, not the least of which is providing a solid foundation for your legal defense in the event you are sued. Grab your pen and pad and join us for this informative program as we learn why documentation is important from a legal and non-legal perspective; what kinds of documentation you should use; how to use documentation as a meaningful performance management tool; how and when to document; and where to put the paper when your documentation is complete.

Jennifer Bouman-Steagall, Red Kite Employment Law
