Course Overview
Often, new supervisors feel that they’re thrown into the deep end of a pool with no idea of what to do except tread water. This course is an excellent beginning to the role and will help participants to determine what is needed. There are five keys to surviving life as a supervisor: be a learner, refresh your network, leverage a mentor, set limits, and let go.
In addition, this course emphasizes performance management. Performance management consists of two main elements: goal setting and performance review. The outcome is based on how or what employees did; in other words, their behavior. This is consistent with the behaviorally-based approach to managing behavior, also known as the Shared Management Model.
Upon successful completion of this course, participants will be able to do the following:
- Clarify the scope and nature of a supervisory position.
- Learn some ways to deal with the challenges of the role.
- Recognize the responsibilities you have as a supervisor, to yourself, your team, and your organization.
- Learn key techniques to help you plan and prioritize effectively.
- Acquire a basic understanding of leadership, team building, communication, and motivation, and what part they play in effective supervision.
- Develop strategies for motivating your team, giving feedback, and resolving conflict.
- Understand the role of goal setting in performance management.
- Have tools to help your employees set and achieve goals.
- Have a three-phase model that will help you prepare employees for peak performance, activate their inner motivation, and evaluate their skills.
- Have a better knowledge of motivational tools and techniques.
