Bank Supervisor School (Spring Session)
It's Time to Lead Intentionally.

Conference/Seminar/School Michele Dunn

You don’t master the art of leading and managing through luck; you master it through training, experience, learning, and staying on top of best practices. As a manager or supervisor, you must have the attitude, aptitude, skill-set, confidence, persistence, and commitment to excel in this multi-tasking, challenging role. This training will help take your expertise to a new level as you learn how to collaborate and coach your employees to excel on the job.

Whether you are new or seasoned managers and supervisors, attendees find this experiential training invigorating, motivating and applicable to managing and supervising others. You will learn how to manage crucial conversations and challenging situations. You will practice a coaching approach that encourages your staff to be engaged and accountable and walk away with a toolbox for immediate use back in your workplace!
