Moving from peer to boss is one of the hardest steps in a career. Yesterday you were part of the team; today you supervise the same coworkers, and the relationships have to change.
This 60-minute supervisor 101 webinar shares practical best practices for making that transition well. It looks at the challenges new supervisors meet when they lead people they used to work alongside, and the steps that help you earn respect in the role.
You'll cover the traits of an effective supervisor, how to balance old relationships with new responsibilities, and core day-to-day skills such as setting performance expectations, delegating, running meetings, motivating staff, handling discipline and making decisions.
WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?
A promotion from within brings a new set of relationships to manage. Without a plan, new supervisors can struggle to be taken seriously by the coworkers they now lead.
