We often promote our best entry level employees into a leadership role.  Although these candidates are excellent performers, and show tremendous potential as management professionals, they may have little actual experience supervising other employees.  New skills such as delegating, and providing feedback to employees can be difficult to master using trial and error.  In addition, new managers are faced with new tasks such as hiring employees and disciplinary actions.  These new duties not only require new task related knowledge, but also an understanding of employment law, discrimination, and harassment.  

The Leading Edge Seminar  provides the leader with insight into their strengths and weaknesses using self assessment tools and upward feedback.  Self-Assessment data can be collected  prior to training delivery through the use of paper and pencil surveys, or our online web surveys.   Our consultants extensively utilize both off-the-shelf instruments, such as the Myers Briggs Type Indicator, and the 16PF, as well as custom designed questionnaires.  Once training is completed employee upward feedback is utilized to provide a measure of  training effectiveness, and guide the young professional in utilizing his or her new skills.  Leading Edge Seminars  are conducted over a full training day on-site at your organization.  The seminar is modular in design and can be modified to meet your organization's needs.
