This is not theory. Our President, Mark Clark, designed a Coaching, Counseling, and Corrective Action system for an $8B manufacturer with this as a key comp0nent. Upon leaving that employer, he further refined the process. First implemented in 2014, use of this process resulted in a reduction in legal challenges by 30 percent and unjustified unemployment claims dropping by 74 percent (over a measured 5-year period).
