Course Description:
In any workplace, certain employees, often valuable in their own right, can unintentionally hinder progress, stifle innovation, and resist necessary changes. This course will equip managers, business owners, and HR professionals with the tools to identify, understand, and effectively manage “blockers” – employees who create obstacles due to fear, habit, or self-interest.

Through real-world examples, practical strategies, and structured communication techniques, participants will learn how to address common blocker behaviors, from resistant long-term employees to overly cautious team members. By the end of this course, attendees will have a clear framework for engaging blockers in productive conversations, setting measurable expectations, and fostering a culture of growth and adaptability.

1. Identify Different Types of Workplace Blockers
2. Assess the Impact of Blockers on Organizational Success
3. Apply Effective Communication Strategies to Overcome Resistance
4. Implement Structured Follow-Ups and Accountability Measures
