Having a difficult conversation is just that…difficult. No one looks forward to having one, some do whatever it takes to avoid one, but when you work with people, difficult conversations are inevitable. It can take time to become adept at talking with staff and addressing behavior and other sensitive issues. When in doubt and/or depending on the severity of the situation, we consult our attorney for guidance and direction.
