Supervisors represent an important force in the economy. They have the power to turn on or turn off the productivity of the people who report to them. They are the crucial interface between the employee on the shop floor or the service desk and the managers of the organization. Although supervisors usually have more technical experience than the employees they supervise, they may not have had a lot of leadership experience. This one-day course will teach skills in communication, coaching, and conflict needed to be successful.

Workshop participants will identify their leadership style, develop leadership flexibility, and learn how to prioritize, plan and manage their time. They will also learn ways to meet the needs of employees and co-workers through communication and coaching, and how to make conflict a powerful force for creative, well-rounded solutions to problems.
