It is inevitable to encounter difficult employees in the workplace. How do you deal with them? Progressive discipline is an effective tool to manage employee behavior and turn an employee to being productive and a contributing member of the organization. If properly applied, progressive discipline commonly uses three steps, according to Dick Grote, founder of Grote Consulting and author of Discipline Without Punishment (AMACOM, 2006): an oral warning, a written warning, and termination.
