comprehensive training for leaders of all levels
The Supervisor Series
The In-Person Program
The Supervisor Series can be customized to suit your organization's needs. Whether you want an immersion learning experience, a comprehensive series of interrelated workshops, or one or two specialty workshops, I bring relevant content delivered in an interactive format that will impact your leaders.
My 2-day program, designed for new, front-line supervisors, explores the skills and approaches necessary to lead others today. The interactions in the classroom build knowledge and skills in key areas—from delegation and communication to accountability and leadership mindset.
possible program components
As you begin to evaluate how to develop leaders in your organization, consider your options. SOME type of simple training is better than nothing! Don't get hung up on creating a far-reaching program that meets everyone's needs. You'll never get there. Start small and begin with one level in the organization. I always recommend beginning with your front-line supervisors because they have the most immediate impact on employee morale and productivity.
Here are some possible topics and content areas my programs explore. Take a look and see if any of these areas will help build competence and confidence among your supervisors and then please reach out to me so I can help you design training that will truly deliver results and create a lasting impact. (Don't make this harder than it needs to be).

The 2-Day program
The 2-Day program
My custom leadership development program, "Moving into Leadership" (as featured in the book, "Pitfalls and Possibilities: A Leadership Fable") is designed for new supervisors to learn the essential skills necessary to manage and lead in today's workplace.
the book
This is the story of two leaders, Jon and Avery, who learn what it takes to be an effective (and authentic) leader.
It's a great supplement for your internal supervisor training program or an excellent addition to your leadership book club!
I'd love to talk to your group about the challenges and approaches found in this story.

Please consider adding me as a coach to your leadership development program.

emergenetics
Self-awareness is the foundation of effective leadership.
One tool that I trust is Emergenetics, a psychometric instrument that measures both thinking and behavioral preferences. It's one of the most effective tools for exploring self-awareness because it's reliable and easy to understand, yet complex in its insights.
Emergenetics workshops are fun, informative, and memorable and make a great addition to your internal leadership program or team development effort.
Please reach out to me to bring Emergenetics to your organization!
