Manager Development Workshops
Hands-on, practitioner-led workshops that give managers the HR skills they use every single week — not theory they’ll forget by Friday.
Your Managers Are Calling HR for Things They Should Handle Themselves
The average manager escalates too many situations to HR that they should be equipped to handle — performance conversations, documentation, terminations, accommodation requests, difficult conflicts. They’re not doing it to be difficult. They’ve simply never been taught how.
Catapult HR manager workshops are scenario-based, interactive sessions led by certified HR practitioners — people who’ve personally handled the exact situations your managers face. No slides and lectures. Real situations, real decisions, real documentation practice.
Who This Is For
- Managers who escalate too many HR issues that they should resolve themselves
- HR teams with limited bandwidth who need managers to be more self-sufficient
- Organizations with recent employment claims tied to manager actions or inactions
- New managers who need foundational HR compliance skills quickly
- Multi-location companies standardizing management practices across teams
What You’ll Walk Away With
- A manager who can lead a performance conversation without HR on a three-way call
- Documentation habits that hold up in a termination or unemployment hearing
- Interview and selection practices that reduce discrimination exposure
- Leave and accommodation basics that prevent costly FMLA and ADA mistakes
- Conflict de-escalation techniques that stop issues before they reach HR

- +Discipline, documentation, and termination skills
- +Interview and selection — legal compliance

What Changes After This Workshop
Measurable outcomes from managers who’ve been through Catapult HR workshop programs.
Fewer HR Calls
Trained managers handle performance conversations, documentation, and conflicts at the team level — significantly reducing unnecessary HR escalations.
Lower Legal Risk
Managers with employment law basics make far fewer mistakes that create discrimination, retaliation, or wage-and-hour liability for your organization.
Better Employee Retention
Managers who communicate clearly, coach effectively, and address issues promptly build teams that stay — and perform at a higher level.
“We did the discipline and documentation workshop with all 12 of our department heads. Within a month, HR was involved in fewer escalations than we’d seen in years. The documentation quality on our performance issues went from almost nothing to something we could actually defend.”
— Director of HR, Distribution Company, SC
