Program Description
For many, it’s the most difficult and unpredictable part of the workplace investigation — conducting the interview. This is especially the case when the witness has a behavioral or mental health issue, or violent tendencies. Shana Palmieri, LCSW, will provide you with a set of tools to handle these challenging interviews. During this 60-minute webinar, Ms. Palmieri, the co-founder and COO of Xferall, will explain temperament traits and personality disorders, and then provide a road map for interviews. She’ll share guidance on how to de-escalate emotionally charged situations.
Attendees to this webinar will also learn how to:
- Interview witnesses with violent tendencies.
- Handle delicate interviews.
- Interview witnesses with past trauma.
This class focuses on the practical and clinical side of managing employees with behavioral health conditions, rather than the legal side.

Course Description
If one of your agency’s employees had a mental health crisis in the workplace, would you know what to do? And considering most employees are still working remotely, how would you even know?
Almost 18 percent of all adults have a mental illness diagnosis at some point in their lives. The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated the ongoing mental health crisis in this country. Earlier this year, OPM released a memo on the importance of mental health and the well-being of Federal employees: “Awareness of mental health supports for Federal employees is an important element of protecting employee well-being and sustaining a high performing Federal workforce.”
This virtual training program will provide highly practical guidance and straight-forward advice on dealing with the very unique challenges you face at this time. Licensed Clinical Social Work Shana Palmieri will de-stigmatize the truth about “mental illness” and will explain the impact various mental health conditions have on individuals, and those they work with. She’ll also provide strategies for effectively supervising and managing employees with these conditions, even as they work remotely.Ms. Palmieri will answer challenging questions, such as:
- What do you do if you suspect a mental health crisis and the employee won’t answer his phone?
- How do you provide constructive criticism to someone who exhibits narcissistic behavior?
- If you suspect that one of your employees has a mental impairment, what can you do beyond directing them to EAP?
- What are the symptoms of a personality disorder?
Attendees will learn how to walk the tenuous line between providing accommodations and support for a mental health condition and holding employees accountable for their work performance. Attend this timely virtual training event and learn strategies to:
- Improve performance and success for employees with mental health conditions.
- Communicate effectively with all employees.
- Successfully accommodate employees with behavioral health conditions.
- Set appropriate boundaries and expectations in the workplace.
- Handle a crisis or outburst in the workplace.
This class focuses on the practical and clinical side of managing employees with behavioral health conditions, rather than the legal side. This event will be held from 1:00 – 3:00 pm ET. You won’t want to miss it.
This program meets the President’s mandate to provide training on diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility in the Federal workplace.

Program Description
For many, it’s the most difficult and unpredictable part of the workplace investigation — conducting the interview. This is especially the case when the witness has suffered trauma. And it’s likely to happen, considering these sobering statistics:
- Seven to eight percent will have PTSD at some point in their lifetimes.
- Eight million adults will experience PTSD in a given year. This is only a small number of the people that experience a trauma.
- Ten percent of women will experience PTSD at some point in their lifetimes, compared with four percent of men.
Shana Palmieri, LCSW, will provide you with a set of tools to handle these challenging interviews. During this 60-minute webinar, Ms. Palmieri, the co-founder and COO of Xferall, will explain the connection between trauma and memory and its implications for the interview. Attendees will learn the considerations of a trauma-influenced interview.
This class focuses on the practical and clinical side of managing employees who have experienced trauma, rather than the legal side.

Program Description
It may seem that you or your coworkers are a little more on edge lately. Most likely, you or they are. Nearly 8 million adults annually experienced Post-Traumatic Stress Syndrome in a given year – and that data was collected before the pandemic. More recent studies show increases in stress, anxiety, and PTSD among adults, and at the same time agencies are planning to bring employees back to the physical workspace. Attendees will learn how PTSD, stress, and anxiety could manifest in the workplace and how agencies can create success for employees with these mental health conditions.
The rates of anxiety and depression among U.S. adults increased times 4 between April 2020 and August 2021, compared to 2019. Prior to the pandemic anxiety rates hovered between 7.4% – 8.6% of U.S. adults, compared to 28.2% and 37.2% after the pandemic hit. Similarly, for depressive symptoms prior to the pandemic, the rates hovered between 5.9% -7.5% compared to 20.2% to 31.1% after the pandemic.
This FELTG training will supply your agency with the tools of knowledge, awareness and interventions to support a healthy, successful and productive workforce.
Topics covered include:
- Overview of symptom profile and the impact on work performance
- Overview of workplace accommodations for mental health conditions
- Management strategies to provide support and improve productivity
- Effective communication techniques and strategies
- How to develop a plan and handle a behavioral health crisis in the workplace
This class focuses on the practical and clinical side of managing employees who have experienced stress, anxiety, and PTSD, rather than the legal side. This class will be held from 1:00 – 3:00 PM ET.

Description
Violence is on the upswing across the country, and mass shootings have taken place at concerts, in shopping centers, in subways — and in workplaces. This violence and other stressors, such as inflation and lingering partisan bitterness about pandemic-related issues, have many people on edge at the same time that agencies are bringing employees back to the physical workplace, after over two years of isolation for many.
Join FELTG Instructor Shana Palmieri, LCSW, as she provides critical information about managing these workplace challenges, including vital guidance on responding to possible threats to self or to others, and practical, effective techniques to de-escalate potentially dangerous situations at Federal agencies.
Attendees will leave with answers to the following questions:
- What warning signs do employees exhibit when they are considering violence?
- What steps should you take if an employee threatens suicide or violence?
- What are the agency’s options when the threat comes from someone outside the workplace such as a spouse, family member, or extremist?
Crisis management in the Federal workplace is a crucial area to understand — it truly is a matter of life and death. This session, held from 1:00-3:00 pm eastern, is too important to miss.

Description
We were all still processing the news of the horrific gun violence at a dance studio in Monterey Park, Calif., that killed 11 people, when news broke of another mass shooting in the Golden State. Authorities have deemed the shooting in Half Moon Bay that killed seven as “workplace violence” that stemmed from “workplace conflict.”
Whether it’s a disgruntled employee or customer, or a domestic issue that follows an employee to work, workplaces are at a distinct risk of violent incidents.
How you prepare yourself to protect the lives of those around you? Are there risk factors that might give you an indication of when someone will become violent? What can you do to help prevent a violent tragedy occurring where you work?
This topic is too important to ignore. FELTG Instructor Shana Palmieri, LCSW will present Assessing Risk and Taking Action: Threats and Violence in the Federal Workplace. Ms. Palmieri, who specializes in mental health and handled the aftermath of the Navy Yard shooting in 2013, will cover:
- Warning signs that violence may be imminent, and dynamic risk and protective factors for workplace targeted violence
- Creating an internal threat assessment investigation
- Equipping Threat Management Teams to respond to threats or violent acts
- Understanding the personality traits and cognitive issues that contribute to violent behavior – and those that don’t
- Domestic or intimate partner violence and the federal workplace
This training event will include time for Q & A on these topics.

Course Description
If one of your agency’s employees had a mental health crisis in the workplace, would you know what to do? And with many employees still working remotely, how would you even know?
Almost 18 percent of all adults have a mental illness diagnosis at some point in their lives. We already had a mental health problem in this country before COVID-19 pandemic, which exacerbated the crisis in this country.
This virtual training program will provide highly practical guidance and straight-forward advice on dealing with the very unique challenges you face at this time. Licensed Clinical Social Work Shana Palmieri will de-stigmatize the truth about “mental illness” and will explain the impact various mental health conditions have on individuals, and those they work with. She’ll provide strategies for effectively supervising and managing employees with these conditions, even as they work remotely. Ms. Palmieri will answer challenging questions, such as:
- What do you do if you suspect a mental health crisis and the employee won’t answer his phone?
- How do you provide constructive criticism to someone who exhibits narcissistic behavior?
- If you suspect that one of your employees has a mental impairment, what can you do beyond directing them to EAP?
- What are the symptoms of a personality disorder?
Attendees will learn how to walk the tenuous line between providing accommodations and support for a mental health condition and holding employees accountable for their work performance. Attend this timely virtual training event and learn strategies to:
- Improve performance and success for employees with mental health conditions.
- Communicate effectively with all employees.
- Successfully accommodate employees with behavioral health conditions.
- Set appropriate boundaries and expectations in the workplace.

Course Description
An increase in reasonable accommodations requests based on religion and disability. Pandemic-related civil rights crises. Increased discussion of diversity and inclusion. Way too many harassment complaints. Talk of changes to the EEO process. If you’ve thought about registering for FELTG’s EEOC Law Week in the past, now is the time to act on it. This weeklong virtual training is updated for 2023, including the latest on COVID-related challenges and workplace harassment.
This in-depth training overs the gamut of EEO issues, and provides usable guidance for all practitioners, regardless of experience level. FELTG’s expert speakers, drawing on years of experience from all sides of the litigation table, deliver a fast-paced week of strategies, principles, and authorities relative to the major aspects of the field of discrimination law in the federal government.
And it provides the required material for EEO counselors and investigators to receive refresher training hours.

Course Description
Want to reduce conflict, increase productivity, and limit absenteeism, turnover, and even removals? That’s impossible, you say. Maybe not, if you learn how to effectively manage individuals whose behavior repeatedly generates workplace conflict.
Attend this two-hour presentation and learn how to recognize employees with high-conflict personalities, whether it’s individuals who blame their peers for mistakes, tend to think in all or nothing terms, or display intense emotions.

Attendees will learn how to:
- Recognize the four traits of a high-conflict personality.

Course Description
Neurodiversity refers to the diversity in how people think, learn, and behave – it’s the idea that people interact with their environment in many ways. Neurodiversity is also inclusive of individuals with learning differences, autism spectrum disorders, or other neurological or developmental conditions such as ADHD.
Research estimates that around 1 percent of the population has an autism spectrum disorder, between 5-9 percent are estimated to have a learning disability and just under 10 percent have a diagnosis of ADHD. The ability to recruit and retain neurodivergent employees will make your agency more diverse — and effective.
In this two-hour virtual training event, FELTG Instructor Shana Palmieri, LCSW will provide an overview of diagnoses that fall under the term “neurodivergence” and share guidance on how to best create an inclusive workplace.
Attendees will learn how to:
- Recognize the strengths and challenges individuals may bring to the workplace.
- Use a strength-based management approach to create a supportive workplace.
- Identify workplace accommodations for qualified individuals.

Description
Whether it’s a disgruntled employee or customer, or a domestic issue that follows an employee to work, workplaces are at a distinct risk of violent incidents. And that risk is heightened when it’s a Federal workplace. Earlier this year, Attorney General Merrick Garland announced a “deeply disturbing spike” in threats against Federal workers.
How do you prepare yourself to protect the lives of those around you? Are there risk factors that might give you an indication of when someone will become violent? What can you do to help prevent a violent tragedy occurring where you work?
This topic is too important to ignore. FELTG Instructor Shana Palmieri, LCSW will present Assessing Risk and Taking Action: Threats and Violence in the Federal Workplace. Ms. Palmieri, who specializes in mental health and handled the aftermath of the Navy Yard shooting in 2013, will cover:
- Warning signs that violence may be imminent, and dynamic risk and protective factors for workplace targeted violence
- Creating an internal threat assessment investigation
- Equipping Threat Management Teams to respond to threats or violent acts
- Understanding the personality traits and cognitive issues that contribute to violent behavior – and those that don’t
- Domestic or intimate partner violence and the Federal workplace
This training event will include time for Q & A on these topics.
