Leader and Manager Development Workshops
Our leadership and management development workshops are not rigid, pre-packaged sessions. Our workshop facilitators are seasoned business consultants who can readily understand your unique operating culture, leadership competencies and business priorities. Based on this, the workshop sessions can be custom tailored to your specific requirements.
Workshop Summaries
Supervisory Survival Skills is a highly interactive two or three-day custom-designed workshop for those individuals who have made (or are in the process of making) the transition from contributor to first-level supervisor. We work with your firm's management to understand the supervisors' role, responsibilities and competencies necessary for success. Based on this information, we develop a workshop agenda that provides the essential basic and practical skills that will enable these newly appointed supervisors to succeed in their role. This workshop teaches practical and useable skills, not theory.
