Kids are often thought of as being uninvolved in their communities because they are “too small” and they can’t do what others can.

    Summary of Workshop Our workshop on It’s Okay to Be the Boss by Bruce Tulgan, contained four scenarios concerning tardiness at work, overwhelming deadlines, slacking off on the job, and being overloaded with work assignment tasks.

The scenarios allowed the “managers” to touch on any solution presented in the book in order to reach the best resolutions to handle problematic situations with employees. Settings like these were used to demonstrate how learning to solve one small performance problem can diffuse mediocrity and better managing people before they get out of hand in the workplace.…
