Pause and Reflect

For statements $1,2,5,8,$ and $9,$ try to think of a way to use positive discipline in place of punishment to prevent or correct the problem behavior.

Is punishment ever necessary or desirable in the workplace? If so$,$ when might it be appropriate? If not, why not?

Can you think of a work situation in which you experienced punishment? If so$,$ did it benefit you $($for example, by teaching you a valuable lesson$)?$

What do you need to do to improve your disciplinary skills in order to be a supervisor in the future?
