Alberto
“There were so many great things I took away from the Supervisor’s Development experience. I now understand what decisions have to be made in order for me to transition into a management role. Delegating more, and providing opportunities for others to learn technical processes moving forward allows me to have more time off the floor. It also allows me to put more trust in others to see if they are capable in closing the performance gap between my standard, and my team’s best capability.”
John
“I just wanted to take a moment to let you know I really enjoyed the supervisors training last week. I have taken several management skills courses and I got more out of this one than any of the previous classes I have attended.”
Michelle
“This Supervisor’s workshop really put a lot of things into perspective. One thing in particular is learning that I cannot do everything on my own. This was a huge wake up call. I think it is easier sometimes to do everything on my own, but in the end, it hurts not only myself but also others trying to learn and grow themselves. Letting go is not an easy thing for me (it never has been!) but I feel like if I let something go everyday (whether super small or big) then that is a step in the right direction. I hope I will have the opportunity to join another workshop you facilitate in the future. Thank you again for everything!”
