Amherst, NH (PRWEB) July 30, 2007 -- Vicon Publishing, Inc. today announced that Master Trainer and Boston University Faculty member, Wayne Crouch, Ph.D., has joined the roster of speakers for Lab Manager Boot Camp sponsored by Lab Manager Magazine®. Dr. Crouch's presentation, How to Mediate Employee Conflict, will be part of the line-up addressing a wide range of topics relating to laboratory management.
Dr. Crouch's presentation is intended to educate managers on exactly how to mediate between employees. When conflicts arise, the coercive management style no longer works, and must be updated with the times. Managers now need to negotiate with their staff as well as learn how to help them negotiate with each other. Audience members will also learn how to:
| | - Determine when problems can best be solved by Managerial Mediation
- Prepare the best context for a mediation meeting
- Perform the three primary tasks of the manager-as-mediator
- Negotiate agreements to prevent reoccurrence
