LEGAL ASPECTS OF EMPLOYMENT

Due to the complexity, ambiguity, and number of laws, guidelines, and executive orders regarding employment discrimination, compliance for managers is not always a simple matter.  This course was developed to help managers become aware of the scope of legal aspects confronting them in the employment process (hiring, promotion, discipline, evaluation, and termination) and to explore the rationale for such regulations.  Managers and those exhibiting supervisory potential should take this course.


lISTENING SKILLS COURSE

The problem isn't getting people to talk......the problem is getting people to listen.  Listening skills are essential tools for effective managers, supervisors, clerical personnel, and other employees.  This course will assist you in improving your listening skills which will benefit you both professionally and personally.  This course is designed for employees interested in improving their listening skills.

 


MANAGING EMPLOYEE RELATIONS

In today's highly competitive business world, an organization's labor-management relationship can often "make or break" its ability to adapt quickly to a changing environment and survive long-term.  Successful companies have recognized the advantage of building and sustaining positive, collaborative, partnering relationships with employees.  Administrators, human resource professionals, managers and/or supervisors will learn how to begin the process of redefining or rebuilding their relationship with labor.  Partnering effectively can motivate and inspire employees, leading to increased morale and productivity, thereby positioning the organization for the future.

 


MANAGING ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGE

CHANGE - we hate it!  We fight it!  But change is inevitable and it is occurring rapidly!  Thousands of companies, like yours, are reeling from the effects of repeated waves of downsizing, restructuring, reengineering, and merger mania.  We waste precious energy if we resist, get angry, or give in to grief over all that's being lost.  We jeopardize our future if we cling to old assumptions and expectations.  This course, designed for managers and supervisors, will teach you how to positively manage change in your organization.


OFFICE PROFESSIONALISM AND BEYOND

It's time to realize your worth!  You are a professional who makes a valuable contribution to your office.  You have power, and you can learn how to use that power.  You deserve the recognition for the skills you use every day.  Analyze what those skills are worth and learn to get the recognition they deserve.  Would you like to have that mighty and invisible power that can enable you to do the impossible?  Self-assertion is the miracle worker of all ages.  One of the most important by-products of self-assertion is self-empowerment.  But it just doesn't happen - it's strictly a do-it-yourself project.  Come and learn how to empower yourself by recognizing and accepting your potential.  This course is designed for office professionals.


PERFORMANCE APPRAISAL WORKSHOP

Managing performance is a key component of a manager's responsibilities.  Developing performance standards and providing feedback can often times be very challenging.  This workshop will help you identify key performance measures, set goals and standards, and prepare to give you feedback.  You will learn effective skills for delivering performance appraisals that will benefit both you and your employees.  This workshop will provide managers and supervisors with the skills and confidence to conduct those normally "dreaded" Employee Performance Reviews (Performance Appraisals), with positive results in terms of organizational goal achievement, as well as employee morale and competence enhancement.
