Speaking Engagements

ELI president Stephen M. Paskoff, Esq., will present the keynote address at the 2008 AAA/CAA Human Resources and Training Conference, a networking event for AAA/CAA HR & Training Professionals from across the US and Canada.

From subtle exclusion to outright bullying and harassment, disruptive workplace behaviors can create great harm for an organization whether they violate the law or not. During this interactive presentation, Paskoff will highlight the pitfalls of using compliance as the primary driver and standard for workplace treatment initiatives. Using thought-provoking real-life examples, he will provide insight into the business risks of inappropriate conduct, the challenges organizations have faced in integrating values into the culture, and what steps HR and Training professionals can take to ensure workplace behavior meets professional as well as legal standards. He’ll demonstrate communication and training approaches that will help organizations not only meet compliance requirements, but also build skills that promote values-based behavior throughout the enterprise. Attendees will learn how to turn managers into leaders who have the knowledge, ability, and motivation to integrate values into every level of the organizational culture.
