Is your company's communication strategy one that will help your organization accomplish its long term strategic business objectives? Do your organization's stakeholders have an accurate perception of where your company is today as well as its vision for the future? To answer "yes" to these questions, it's essential that your company utilizes a systematic and strategic communication strategy with both internal and external audiences.

Individuals in leadership positions, including supervisors and managers at all levels, play an important role in setting the ethical tone and standards for social responsibility within their organization.

MTI's Managerial Ethics seminar covers a variety of topics related to ethical decision making in the business world, emphasizing the idea that ethical decision making practices are in the best long term interests of the company, as well as of its employees, customers, and the larger community.

Learning Objectives: Topics covered in this half day seminar include:

In today's highly competitive and fast changing business environment, managers must continually seek to improve their supervisory and coaching skills throughout their careers.  Whether you're a new or seasoned supervisor, or you're considering moving to management, this class will benefit you.

Focusing on practical training for managers and other professionals, Foundations of Supervision emphasizes both the procedural and human aspects of effective management. 

Topics covered include:

On the surface, the Fair Labor Standards Act is a straightforward statute.  It requires employers to pay employees at least the minimum wage for all hours worked and pay non-exempt workers at least 1 1/2 times each employee's regular rate for all hours worked beyond 40 in a workweek.  Despite its easy appearance, wage and hour audits generally reveal at least one thing the audited employer is doing that does not comply with the law and sometimes the payroll administration mistakes can be costly.

Managing employee morale is very different during times of economic difficulty than during times of prosperity. When times are tough, one thing is certain. Employees are scared. They are worried about their futures - both with the organization and on a personal level. Efforts to manage morale during down times must start with the recognizing that what employees need during times of uncertainty can't be addressed by traditional approaches to improving morale. 

For both practical and legal reasons, internal investigations are increasingly becoming an important part of business culture. Managers must be aware of the legal importance of internal investigations as well as the best practices for conducting those investigations.

Properly conducted internal investigations can facilitate prompt conflict resolution and potentially reduce the likelihood of litigation. Properly conducted internal investigations can also provide important evidence in the event litigation does arise. In contrast, poorly conducted internal investigations can create bad evidence.  

MTI's HIPAA Overview seminar is designed to provide attendees with an overview of the HIPAA regulations that impact how they must handle and secure employee health information. This class provides a basic overview the HIPAA privacy regulations, including individual rights, privacy standards, protected information, compliance reviews, violation consequences, and more. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
