Supervision as Leadership

Course Description:
Being an effective supervisor and leader requires you to meet the big picture needs of your organization while simultaneously handling the "little details" that come from human interaction.  Participants will learn how to:

• Supervise using coaching techniques
• Switch from reactive supervision to proactive supervision
• Create organization standards that encourage peer-to-peer accountability
• Utilize tactical planning to keep everyone moving toward common goals
• Develop strategies for effective meetings that make people look forward to, rather than dread, meeting time
