Issue ridden employees and managers

Killing people's character in the office

Character assassination is an attempt to tarnish a person's reputation. It may involve exaggeration or manipulation of facts to present an untrue picture of the targeted person. It is a form of defamation and can be a form of ad hominem argument.

IMPORTANT: At Behavioral Resource Group, we believe it is possible to motivate others to the point of "self discovery" through both the P.I.A.V. analysis and the advanced D.I.S.C. model from TTI ®.
We help ceo's, managers, and decision makers develop inter-personal relationships between peers and subordinates thus enhancing productivity in a significant way.
