This training resource uses four case studies to describe different situations that may, or may not, require formal disciplinary action.
This training activity uses four short case studies to illustrate different instances where formal disciplinary action is not necessarily the best course of action. Participants read the case studies, make brief notes on the different cases, and decide whether or not they think formal action is appropriate. The training activity needs very little introduction. The trainer’s main role is to facilitate the feedback session by collecting the information on a flipchart. This training activity can be used as a short energiser to help participants realise that formal disciplinary action is not always needed and that better results can, under the right circumstances, be gained from an informal approach.
Who is it for: This training resource is intended for use by trainers with supervisors, team leaders and managers who are responsible for managing themselves and others.
