Supervisor Start-Up: How to Help Your New Leaders Survive and Thrive

Supervisor Start-Up Webinar Recording

To succeed, new managers must exhibit true leadership, boost morale, and reduce employee turnover, all while positively impacting your organization's bottom line -- a tall order. Yet a recent survey found that 86 percent of supervisors have difficulty transitioning from being individual contributors to having new management roles, and only 41 percent are satisfied with their current leadership training programs.

With such a staggering percentage of new managers feeling uneasy about their new job description and unsure of how to improve their skills, it's vital for HR and existing leadership to step in and make the adaptation process easier and more productive.

Learn how you can help new managers develop practical strategies for everything from transitioning from employee to supervisor to handling difficult conversations with new subordinates. Using tools such as manager evaluations, you can help your new leader not only survive but thrive in his or her new role. 

Participate in this interactive webinar, and in just 90 minutes, you'll learn:

• Common hurdles and conflicts newly minted supervisors may encounter -- and tips to overcome them
• Weaknesses your supervisors must address so that their new teams don’t fall apart
• Key strengths that great supervisors possess, and how you can help develop them
• Effective strategies for helping your supervisors listen and respond appropriately

• How to measure a new manager’s first month, and how to pinpoint areas that need to be improved

With job satisfaction at an all-time low, new managers are key to reenergizing and reengaging employees -- and it's up to HR and veteran managers to show them how.
