ROUND TABLE SEMINARS
Every cloud actually does have a silver lining.
Discussing how to manage and deal with violence and harassment.
Dealing with workplace bullying, violence, and harassment concerns all of us. It concerns women and men regardless of sexual identification, age, social status. It concerns disabled people, LGBTQ+, parents, partners, etc.
The MRK Consulting team of psychologists, mental health counsellors, social workers and business consultants set up the ROUND TABLE seminar cycle, the purpose of which is to provide practical solutions and show how the phenomenon of workplace violence and harassment operates and can be fought.
The fact that workplace violence and harassment is first and foremost linked to work survival, economic prosperity and social standing makes it imperative to be prepared to deal with bullying when and where necessary.
The seminar goal is to make you feel good, confident, to understand that IT’S NOT YOUR FAULT, and provide you with the tools to deal with mobbing, violence and harassment.
ROUND TABLE seminars are structured in a way that will help you not only in your work but also in your life in general.
