Virtual Classroom (Live) The Supervisor's Role as Trainer and Coach Webinar

This fun and informative seminar is jam-packed with proven strategies and expert techniques to help you train your staff more effectively, improving their efficiency and making you a better overall manager.

Course Description/Agenda


Superior knowledge and experience don’t always translate into the ability to teach others. And though the role of trainer is one of the most important duties you fill as a supervisor, there’s a good chance you’ve never had any training in it. It’s perfectly normal—despite being a crucial part of your job, a manager’s role as teacher is often overlooked.

And that’s exactly why you need The Supervisor’s Role as Trainer & Coach. This fun and informative seminar is jam-packed with proven strategies and expert techniques to help you train your staff more effectively, improving their efficiency and making you a better overall manager.

It’s a simple formula: A well-educated staff is a good staff. And the key to a well-educated staff is good training and coaching from management. But, too often good supervisors overlook this vital part of their job and leave their staff to their own devices ... struggling to learn through trial and error. Not only is this a huge time-waster, but it also doesn’t allow you to transfer knowledge you’ve gained through experience.

And that’s exactly why you can’t afford to miss this fun and entertaining seminar. It gives you the strategies you need to share your knowledge and experience with your staff, making them more effective right away. Don’t wait, sign up now!
