In our experience Managers are trained for Management but not necessarily Industrial Relations, this can have the potential to undermine Management and the Strategic Plan of any company when the need for increased competitiveness and market share means having to renegotiate your staff’s terms and conditions.
Good Industrial Relations goes hand in hand with good management and profitability. Excellent Industrial Relations is about skilled negotiation, understanding the boundaries and roles of all parties and achieving the objectives of the management through competent mediation.
