XLRN X800.6 - New Manager Boot Camp
Course Description
So you're a Manager now...
One of the most difficult periods of transition in your work life is when you might find yourself in a position where management is key.
Both formal and informal management roles require skills that regular, on-the-job training does not provide.
In this class, you will learn skills crucial to your success as a new manager.
These include:
-
Influence and Advocacy,
-
Motivation and Performance Management
-
Leading Teams, and
-
Leadership Communication
During this intensive two-day course with distinguished UCSB faculty Kyle Lewis (TMP) and Paul Leonardi (TMP), you will learn cutting-edge research in each of these areas, develop skills to be an effective manager, and leave with practical tips that you can use in your new management role tomorrow - and well into the future.
