If you're a leader, HR or training professional responsible for developing your organization's managers, you won't want to miss this course.

This course will show you how to create your own in-house management training program. You'll learn from the success of a global pharmaceutical company that has been running their own program since 2007, with impressive results in higher employee retention, productivity, and fewer HR issues related to management. Even the leaders and mentors who participate in the program continue to learn and develop their skills.

You'll learn how to select resources and build the curriculum, create excitement and 'good buzz' around the program, and ensure active participation and commitment from participants who enjoy the program. With the skills you'll learn in this course, you'll be able to develop a management training program that sets your new managers up for success, while also boosting the skills and knowledge of your existing leadership team.

Don't let your new managers 'skin their knees' as they learn on the job. Take this course and create a management training program that will give them the skills they need to succeed.

Why you should Attend:

Organizations continue to promote technically proficient employees into management roles. So how do we get these newly promoted leaders up to speed? For many organizations, these new leaders learn by skinning their knees and making mistakes along the way -- often costing the organization in lower productivity and turnover.

Progressive thinking organizations recognize people management has a unique skill set -- and the key to retention and productivity is solid front-line managers. A holistic management development program will give these new managers the foundation they need to succeed.

No money in your budget for training? Don't fret! You can develop a meaningful management development program in-house using your own leaders as your training team. That's exactly what we did at a global pharmaceutical company. This program has been going strong since 2007! Does it work? The proof is in the data higher employee retention, higher productivity, less HR issues related to management. And not only the participants get trained each leader and mentor that participates is learning as well. This program was built by a one-person training department, and has grown and been polished along the way. Learn how you can create your own in-house management training program. You can do it!
