Becoming an Accountable Professional
En Español: Convertirse en un profesional responsible
ID del Curso: pe_05_a01_bs_esdo
Most employees in business organizations must answer to someone else. From the top of the organization chart to the bottom, nearly every manager and employee must look to a supervisor, a director, or even a customer to establish priorities, assign tasks, set deadlines, and evaluate results. Whoever gives this direction is called the boss. On one level, the boss decides how employees will perform their jobs. How well an employee meets requirements set by the boss determines whether that employee succeeds or fails, receives rewards or penalties, and earns praise or criticism. On another level however, the judgment of an external boss isn’t enough to make a job personally fulfilling and rewarding. That’s something all employees of an organization decide for themselves. Everyone who works must also answer to an inner boss, a personal, internal voice that provides guidance on whether a job is worth doing and whether it is done well. Accepting personal accountability for your work means your inner boss sets demanding standards and that you’re willing to commit to meeting those standards and answer for the results of your work.

Difficult People: Can't Change Them, so Change Yourself
En Español: Personas difíciles: No puede cambiarlas, así que cambie usted mismo
ID del Curso: comm_46_a02_bs_esdo
It would be easy to say that to deal with difficult people you should be tolerant and accept people’s differences. This sounds nice, and might work in the short term, but if you are working with people you find difficult and you expect to be working with them for some period of time – you are better off learning how to respond and relate to them. The approach you use depends on the person, the situation, and your willingness to build and blend skills as needed. Dealing with difficult people requires that you first learn how to manage yourself with them. This means being self-aware and practicing self-management. It also means tuning into the feelings and emotions of others, however difficult it might be. When you know what triggers you and how you typically react, you can build skills to help make your interactions with others more productive. This is emotional intelligence, and if you build this capacity, you will be able to deal more effectively with many difficulties in life (including other people)!

Difficult People: Why They Act That Way and How to Deal with Them
En Español: Personas difíciles: Por qué actúan de ese modo y cómo tratar con ellas
ID del Curso: comm_46_a01_bs_esdo
Anything taken to an extreme can be a liability, and this is true of human behavior. While confident, cautious, or energetic people can be perfectly tolerable in small doses, they can also be annoying or problematic when their behavior is over-the-top. Then there are people who are just plain negative – their glass is always ‘half empty.’ While occasional griping is acceptable, negativity can wear you down.Certain situations trigger extreme behaviors that might be moderated otherwise. And, your own emotional state might be such that your tolerance for any extreme is low. All sorts of situational and personal circumstances can make a somewhat difficult person into an extremely difficult person in no time.

DOT: Reasonable Suspicion of Drug and Alcohol Abuse
FMCSA 49 CFR Part 382.603 of the FMCSA regulations states each employer shall ensure that all persons designated to supervise drivers receive at least 60 minutes of training on alcohol misuse and an additional 60 minutes of training on drug use. Our reasonable suspicion training programs are fully compliant with FMCSA 49 CFR Part 382.603 regulations. Whether your company needs Reasonable Suspicion training for your supervisor(s) or manager(s) to help with DOT regulations or to promote your drug free workplace, we have the solution. Our online “Reasonable Suspicion” training course was developed based on years of tested industry experience with a focus not only to educate on the issues related to drug and alcohol abuse, but to be an interactive and effective tool in applying these practices in the real world situations. During the course, we will discuss and review the parameters of the law; provide specific insight on how these rules apply in determining “reasonable suspicion”; provide an overview of the substances addressed by the law; and will, in general, provide the supervisor with a tool to guide them in determining if an individual should be approached for “reasonable suspicion.” For organizations not guided by the law, we will provide the basic underlying principles of understanding drug and alcohol abuse so that supervisors can better understand the dynamics of drug and alcohol abuse and begin implementing or expanding policies for providing a “drug-free workplace.”

“There is a kind of Buddhistic calm that comes from having . . . money in the bank.” – Ayn Rand

Personal Power and Credibility
En Español: Poder personal y credibilidad
ID del Curso: comm_42_a01_bs_esdo
Authority carries a certain type of power – typically position power. A person is granted the power and authority to meet goals and get results through a responsible job definition and accountability. The police officer that cites you for speeding. The financial manager that calls for an audit. The company manager that decides how to allocate the budget. People may comply, rebel, resist, or gripe about those in authority, but there is a reason and purpose for such positional power. On the other hand, most of the results that get accomplished in organizations come from the use of personal power and not solely reliant on direct authority. This is especially true in our work environments today, where information sources and networking contacts are accessible to all as means to results. But ultimately it comes down to personal credibility, influence, and political savvy. This course focuses on the power that comes with being credible and trustworthy.

Safety at Work: A Systematic Approach
ID del Curso: ehs_hsf_a07_sh_esdo
Do you ever find yourself wishing you had more control over the way you do your job – especially tasks related to your personal safety and health? Many safety programs are designed and implemented by managers, with the expectation that employees will follow the practices they prescribe. While employee health and safety is paramount, safety programs designed by management may fail to recognize why employees take the risks they do – even though they may have been trained in safe procedures. Systematic approaches to safety at work can be used to enhance programs in place. Changes to improve safety are driven by employees on up through management. This course explores behavior-based safety, how a behavior-based safety program is used to enhance safe behavior and a safety culture, as well as the roles and responsibilities of employees and management. This course was developed with subject matter support provided by EnSafe Inc.

The Building Blocks of Building Trust

ID del Curso: pe_04_a01_bs_esdo
Can I trust you? This is what others may ask, often silently, when they work and engage with you. It’s also what you ask about another person as well. If you want people to trust you, a firm handshake and good eye contact is not enough. You have to build trust like a mason builds a wall – one stone at a time. It rarely comes ready-made. But when you’ve taken the effort to build it and it is solid, you want to maintain it for a long time. Trust is a core ingredient in most every positive relationship. Without trust, the mason’s wall takes on a whole new analogy – a barrier with no gate for entry. In this course, you’ll explore what makes you and others trustworthy, how to demonstrate trustworthiness, and the importance of extending trust to receive trust.
