SUMMARY:2021 Supervisory Skills Program
DESCRIPTION:NEPPA has partnered with Dale Carnegie Training to bring their high caliber supervisory and leadership training in-house for the Supervisory Skills Program. \nDale Carnegie trainers take participants through the Cycle of Performance Change process to create an environment that allows transformation to happen. \nIn every Dale Carnegie program\, participants are constantly reflecting on how utilizing the skill or tool would positively impact themselves and their organization. From the very beginning\, participants are encouraged to identify the changes they desire and\, more specifically\, the behaviors they are seeking to change or improve. They are then asked to imagine the specific results they will achieve because of these new behaviors. \n2021 NEPPA Supervisory Skills Program Agenda \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Who Should Attend\nThis program is designed for: \n>General Managers >Directors>Supervisors>Team Leaders>Emerging Leaders>Project Managers \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Course Overview  \nThe Supervisory Skills Program is designed to equip existing and emerging leaders with the tangible skills to better manage themselves\, their teams\, and their organization. \nThis live\, instructor-led\, virtual program will be presented in four half-day sessions being held June 16 – 17 and June 23 – 24 from 8:00 am – 12:00 pm each day.
