Emerging Leaders Workshop
Companies often promote people into supervisory positions because they are an excellent individual contributor and technically proficient in their roles, without providing them the training on how to be an effective people manager. Given that the effectiveness of a manager is absolutely vital to retaining people, the need to invest in preparing people to take on the additional responsibilities of management is critically important. This two-day workshop supports new managers in being prepared for this paradigm shift.
NOTE: We ask that organizations send up to two individuals to this workshop. If your organization is interested in having more individuals participate, we can work with you to create a customized solution to meet your needs and goals.
