This 2-day introductory leadership program is designed to equip new and upcoming managers with the necessary skills to be successful in their roles. Oftentimes, managers struggle with the transition from peer to supervisor because they have not been trained or even exposed to leadership best practices. Filled with discussions, case studies, and experiential activities, participants will explore concrete and practical examples to equip themselves with the needed tools and skills as they move into management.
