Overview
​

In technology and engineering organizations, individual contributors are often promoted because of their knowledge and expertise. But their success as leaders depends directly on their ability to get things done through others.

This session will provide participants with the key tools they need to be more confident and productive in their organizations.

Tailored to the specific needs of technical, manufacturing and engineering organizations, this workshop provides participants with the know-how to avoid the most common mistakes made by managers, the capability to apply appropriate leadership styles in varied situations, and strategies for conveying difficult information about performance – honestly and proactively. The format of this course is highly interactive with a focus on practical techniques and applications in current roles.
