What steps would you take to tackle human relations problems in your organization?

Maintaining a positive, productive work environment is critical for all managers. We accomplish this by engaging in the steps to tackle human relations problems in our organization:

• mentoring and coaching your staff
• regular feedback, including annual performance reviews
• open and honest communication regarding group, unit and university business issues
• change management strategies
• employee engagement and empowerment
• fairly, assertively and promptly addressing workplace challenges and problems.

Addressing declining performance or poor personal skills is an unwelcome but necessary function. Unacceptable performance and conflicting relationships can quickly impact the productivity and workplace environment for the entire group.
