Stepping Up to Supervisor

Making the transition from staff member to supervisor can be challenging. This course is designed to address some of those unique challenges. Through self-assessment and case studies, participants will determine their preferred supervisory style and identify ways to modify it to bring out the best in others. You will learn:

  • communication strategies to enhance your confidence, assertiveness, and influence
  • how your supervisory style affects others and how modification may achieve better results
  • how to deal with passive-aggressive or resistant employees
  • interpersonal techniques that pinpoint the "real" issues in resolving conflict
