How To Manage Difficult People

How To Manage Difficult People

The latest episode of The HR Man Show!

The environments within our businesses MATTER.

A large proportion of people will select their next role and employer based on the environments they will be working in.

In this weeks episode we focus on how you manage the difficult people in your business.

These people can really have a detrimental impact on your business and if you're not careful, you will keep the difficult people and lose the productive people.

Managing Staff Performance

Managing Staff Performance

In this weeks HR Man Podcast, we have an unexpected show!

This show provides our actual Performance Management training that we provided to our private clients.

To be clear...we do not normally share content that we often provide exclusively to clients, but this means you will get live actionable steps that you can take away and apply in your business.

A common denominator in ALL businesses is the impact of performance concerns and then how we also manage what is a delicate and subjective issue.

The Employment Law Changes In 2023 You Must Know!

The Employment Law Changes In 2023 You Must Know!

There are a raft of potential Employment Law Changes coming in 2023, some may come, some may not, some laws may go and other may change.

In this Podcast we review the potential changes, and the possible Private Members Bills.

One thing is for certain though, 2023 is going to be a crazy hard year for businesses and it could be argued that these raft of changes and the sheer potential numbers of changes could just add to the confusion and complexity.

Let us know your thoughts!

Why NHS Strikes Won't Solve The NHS Problems!

Why NHS Strikes Won't Solve The NHS Problems!

Right now it feels as though at least once a week there is a strike somewhere, in multiple sectors and industries and all of them are seeking to increase their wages on the backdrop of the highest interest rates for over 40 years!

The NHS, for a change is no different!

With strikes from Nurses, Paramedics, Call Handlers and more.

But in this Podcast we discuss why these strikes, even if they succeed in obtaining the 19% wage increases they desire, won't translate into a solution to the problems within the NHS.

Note...this is not a political podcast but just a review of the current situation from our side and expertise, which are around HR and the People within businesses.

This is our FIRST Podcast and what better way to start than to explore getting more profits into your business?

 If you DON'T want to get more profits or if you're happy where you are and for others to get more of a competitive advantage, then this is not the episode or podcast for you! If this is you, just move on because the rest of us are about to super charge this thing and wish you all the best as we leave you behind!

We're not going to lie though, it does take some work, but whilst the crowd a flailing around trying to tread water, this will give you some flippers so you can swim out of the storm, find dry land and reap the benefits of its bounty whilst everyone else is still struggling out in open water!
