When do I see results?
Improvements can be achieved within a few days, although the full benefits take weeks to months to achieve for you and the team
Does this process really work with all the different problem employees?
This process has yet to fail me after using it 50+ times. You will need to adapt the steps to each person and situations to get the best results
How much will team performance rise after dealing with the difficult employee?
The team performance increase achieved will be specific to your team and situation. I have seen 10% increase at the low end and 200%+ at the high end. i.e. you and your boss will notice the difference
How long does it take to do the course?
The lessons can be completed in n afternoon, though most people take a week or so. The examples, exercises and preparing to take action will typically take at least a few days to complete

Nothing you discuss with us will negatively impact your career
When you take no action with difficult employees, underperformers, poor behaviour, or any other people issues that bring the overall team down, you are communicating that what the difficult employee is doing is okay. You unintentionally give them permission to carry on as is.
Getting other team members to improve is 10 times harder. Why should they improve when you are allowing someone to behave or perform worse than them. In this situation your attempts to improve team performance are like pushing water up a mountain.
Taking action communicates what the difficult employee is doing is not okay.
The action of improving or removing the difficult employee instantly puts psychological pressure on everyone else in the team to perform better. Team members increase their performance, so they are not the worst performing in the team. Use human nature to make managing a successful team easier.
Why Doing Too Little is Bad News
Problems Spread
Another important factor in groups … performance and behavioural problems spread and get worse if left alone. No-one wants to feel taken advantage of by others, so drop their performance to prevent this happening
