Overview:      

What are the core competencies that every manager must excel at to be successful?  Managers bear the responsibility to develop the capabilities within the individuals, processes, and systems of the organization.  You are responsible for maximizing your resources, and no resource is more valuable than your HUMAN resource and your TIME.   In this training session, we will review critical skills for delegation, using your time wisely, formal and informal communication with your team, and providing the right type of motivation at the right time.
