Supervisory Leadership Seminar Week 2 Online: Frontline Leadership Skills
Gaining Fundamental Tools and Techniques
Overview
If you can’t be away from the office for a week, the
Supervisory Leadership Seminar Online: Frontline Leadership Skills duplicates the Leadership week of the Supervisory Leadership Seminar.
Through intensive online interactions, you will learn how successful frontline supervisors are able to artfully balance the authority of formal supervision with the influence and rapport of leadership. Often called “soft skills” leadership, this can be the hardest part of your job because it isn’t clear-cut and applicable from a policy perspective. You will explore motivation and values; how emotional intelligence is a greater asset than IQ in your interpersonal leadership; your role as coach, counselor and mentor; and the advantages of building an inclusive workforce.
This is an instructor-facilitated online class that meets for five weeks online and has no in-residence requirements. The seminar is cohort-based with fixed assignment dates. It is not self-paced; weekly teleconferences increase the interaction and provide opportunity for questions and discussion. You will participate in self-assessment activities, online simulations and discussions.
