WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND

Many managers begin their tenure with no previous managerial experience or training. One day you’re a highly competent person and the next day you’re in charge of at least one other person and at a loss. To make things worse, you’re often told to continue all your previous work while you “manage” your team. Unfortunately, this “tradition” is alive and well and the poor results have been documented for decades.

You can choose to break the pattern. You can learn the basic skills of great management and use them to build a high performing team. Whatever your official title or the size of your team is, some basic facts apply because we are all dealing with human nature.

You can hone your management skills and apply practical solutions to get the robust results your management requires. These are basic survival – and “thrival” – skills in today’s global marketplace and “do-more-with-less” business culture.
