Facts do not change feelings. During this convincing live presentation, The Management Challenge™ introduces participants to a well-trained, aggressive and articulate union official. Using real facts, specific issues, and no small amount of disdain to real management practices, participants hear persuasive and emotional arguments organizers would use to gain employee support and to get their signatures on authorization cards.

Participant emotions are generated and discomfort is created, as leaders begin the process of learning the importance of relationships and feelings as to the perceptions of their leadership. Unveiling issues pertinent to the company, geographic locations, or specific industries, The Management Challenge™ helps employers recognize the power of emotion in conflicts and enhance employee relations.

The Management Challenge™ is a great attention grabber and discussion starter for companies wishing to foster dialogue about personal leadership and positive employee relations, or to create an employee advocacy strategy around specific issues that could cause employees to sign authorization cards.
