Have you ever been in a workplace situation where a supervisor has made a decision that you didn’t agree with?

The peer review process offers employees just that chance, using a formalized procedure to ask, consider, and resolve just these sorts of questions. This one-day workshop will teach you everything you need to know about employee dispute resolution through mediation.
