Today's organizations face dynamic challenges in the areas of changing economic climates, sustaining a competitive edge, recruiting and retaining competent people, and managing workplace stress. These factors are the same forces that contribute to the rise of workplace conflict, personnel dissatisfaction, costly attrition, and diminished productivity.
Leaders, administrators, principals, and supervisors are in critical organizational roles. Recent research indicates people often join companies highly motivated and with lofty goals only to become disheartened and leave because administrators and supervisors fail to engage and support their people and teams. The Wilson Learning Research study results indicated between 56 and 83 percent of employee satisfaction is predicated upon the manager's skills and style. It's sound business practice to invest in and train Administrators and supervisors since their interactions with staff significantly influence employee commitment and retention rates (Donaldson, 2008).
The demand for training in people management, effective communication, coaching support, and motivation is increasing. Mandt for Administrators Leadership Programs® are designed for organizational personnel working in leadership, managerial and supervisory positions. The intensive, variable-length programs assist organizations in training their supervisory and managerial personnel by enhancing the communication and relationship skills of these key leaders as they support the mission of, and people in, their organization.
The Mandt System® approach centers on the tenet of treating all people with dignity and respect. What sounds like a common-sense approach in working with people does not mean it is one that is often practiced, and cultivating respect in the workplace begins with administrators Mandt Leadership Foundations: Leading Effectively through Positive Workplace Relationships is a three-day training for CEO, Director, Manager and Supervisory level personnel. The central theme is learning strategies that promote the tenet of treating people with dignity and respect as the cornerstone of your organization's culture. This practical application program includes simulations of work place issues, and individual assessments of personal management and conflict resolution styles.
The Leadership Foundations Program® includes training in the areas of Cultivating Positive Workplace Relationships, Developing People through Supportive Management Styles, Crafting Effective Multimodal Communication, Building Positive Facilitation and Conflict Resolution Skills, and Creating Collaborative Dream Teams. The training can easily be customized to meet the unique needs of any organization. Additional optional training modules include Managing Change; Managing Workplace Stress; Coaching, Mentoring and Developing People; Gaining and Maintaining Trust; The Profitability of Diversity; Motivating Your Team; Improving Personnel Satisfaction and Retention Rates; Well-Being at Work: Creating Emotional, Psychological and Physical Safety; and Delivering Effective Customer Service.
The best places to work are those that show employee respect and commitment (Towers and Perrin, 2006). Training is an organization's commitment to, and investment in, its people. Mandt Leadership Training® pays! Program evaluations and feedback from previous participants indicate organizations whose administrators completed the 3-day training experienced increased employee commitment, engagement, and overall job satisfaction. When looking for ways to further develop and enrich your organization's culture and productivity, consider the Mandt Leadership Programs®.
