We always enjoy the days when we can 'give' to others and have some fun while we do it. Yesterday, some of our team put on some costumes and handed out over 1000 pieces of candy - and ran out early! A big thank you to Sara Vereeke, Renee Goodemoot, Adam Pennell & his kids Macy & Alex!

Our resident HR Ninja Kurt Wassink showcasing and sharing one of his many talents for the Medical Group Management Association event held at Crystal Mountain.

With summer still in full swing, it's hard to believe that our Fall Conference is less than 2 months away! Register at https://lnkd.in/e47VR2TF before time slips away. Early bird registration ends on Friday, August 19th.

We are excited to put the spotlight on one of our Thursday morning sessions, "Leading Difficult Conversations in the Workplace." Kurt Wassink will be using his HR expertise to address a challenging issue that nearly all employers are currently facing.

It is no secret that employers more than ever are struggling to attract and retain talent in this tight labor market. As a result, employers are faced with the dilemma of whether to lower expectations and standards when it comes to employee performance and acceptable workplace behaviors. In this session, we will discuss how even in this tight labor market, you can still hold employees accountable and have difficult conversations with employees to ensure solid performance and employee productivity is still being achieved. The goal of this session is to provide participants with effective and meaningful ways to lead these difficult conversations and provide conflict resolution strategies during this unusual time of worker shortages.
