We believe that the supervisory level of management is the most critical level in the success of an organization. This seminar is designed to de-mystify the role of the modern supervisor and show why they must be a member of the management team.

This 2-day seminar will enable the participants to acquire organizational skills critical to the supervisory level of management to implement necessary changes in the work place effectively.
