A Supervisor's Guide to Managing Team Productivity and Priorities - Getting the most out of your team

Program Description:

Be Proactive, Not Reactive

As a leader, multitasking isn’t an option ... it’s a requirement. Not only are you juggling your own projects and priorities, but you also need to oversee your team’s projects, as well as handle numerous administrative and personnel duties.

So, how do you keep everything rolling smoothly without dropping the ball on something critical? Our one-day A Supervisor’s Guide to Managing Team Productivity and Priorities workshop will give you the tips, techniques, and skills to manage people and projects like a pro.

Get More Done in Less Time
Your to-do list is constantly growing. For every task completed, several more pop up! This workshop shows you how to better manage yourself, as well as your team. You’ll learn how to efficiently and cost-effectively streamline your team’s productivity to make that seemingly endless to-do list disappear.

Stay in the Loop Without Micromanaging
It’s your responsibility to make sure deadlines are met and projects are finished on time. Sometimes, it may seem like a difficult task to be able to let go. To be effective, you have to let your team work independently to finish the project without you hovering over their every move. We’ll show you how to develop simple tools and systems that will keep you in the loop without having to be bogged down with all of the mundane details. You’ll not only save time, but you’ll have the complete confidence your team is on the right track.

The tools and techniques you’ll learn at A Supervisor’s Guide to Managing Team Productivity and Priorities workshop are designed to help you and your group communicate and collaborate more productively and efficiently, saving you and your organization time and money.
