MAPS Transitioning into Supervision

Course Overview

Course Description

"Transitioning into Supervision" is an interactive course designed for individuals transitioning to a supervisory role or interested in a career path in supervision. The course works to shift participants' focus from being an employee to entering the world of management as a supervisor.

Assumption of a supervisory role begins the learning process enabling you to foster change and promote growth of team members while achieving or exceeding productivity expectations. During the program, participants are oriented to the establishment of goals, learning skills to shift their thought processes to that of leadership, enforcing accountabilities, and strategically thinking.  Woven through this program is the recognition that change and moving out of your comfort zone is to be expected as you evolve as a leader.  

Key topics upon which we will focus include leadership basics e.g. effective communication and listening, team building, time management, continuous improvement, problem resolution, etc. By the end of the session you will have an initial draft of a developmental plan for leadership skill enhancements and a variety of resources.
