Put yourself in the role of an HR Manager advising line supervisors on how to document any disciplinary action given by the supervisor. From the 6 common disciplinary documentation mistakes set forth in the Front Line Leadership (2018) article, choose 4 that you think are the most important to focus on.

Prepare a PowerPoint slide presentation with speaker notes at the bottom of each slide. Your goal is to provide line supervisors with specific right and wrong examples of each of the 4 documentation mistakes you have chosen. Draw upon the background readings on progressive discipline to support your “right approach” to Progressive Discipline documentation and explain in your presentation how this “right approach” should guide the supervisors.
