“So, You Want to Be a Manager”
Many employees experience it firsthand. They know they want to grow in their career, but they’re not quite sure how to get there. They work hard, find some mentors along the way, and in time, are promoted to management.

The challenges begin as the new manager realizes how unprepared they really are . . . there is a problem employee that must be dealt with, they have a performance review to conduct, and there is a hiring issue, not to mention getting acclimated to their new role. They feel lost, and they are not alone. Many managers are trained only after they are promoted.

After much research and client feedback, Vision Enterprises designed this program to prepare employees for management before they enter the world of leading others.

In this innovative program, participants will learn how to build a professional management image, the expectations put on managers, how to manage the “people” side of business, how to become a true leader, coping with stress, the politics of it all, 10 steps to prepare for management now, and much more.

Our clients are thrilled. They tell us that training participants:

  • learn what management is all about
  • know what managers encounter daily, and communicate better with senior managers, eliminating the “us” and “them” attitudes
  • improve their customers’ experience with their organization because they are thinking and acting like leaders now
  • communicate more effectively with coworkers, spending less “down” time in conflicts, and are ultimately more productive
  • communicate better with vendors, benefiting the bottom line
  • can easily be promoted from within, saving them money, time, and lost revenues

“Empowering the Organization: Leadership Skills for All”
Today, organizations are compelled to do more with less staff, specifically, with fewer middle managers. The responsibility of leadership is being shifted to the front line employee, a role many take on with little or no training.

Participants will learn how to think and act like a leader, communicating more effectively with coworkers, upper management, vendors, and the ever-so-valuable customer.

An important workshop for companies who look to improve their bottom line with a more productive and effective workforce.

“The New Manager, Life in the Fast Lane”
This program is designed for the new manager, who is still earning credibility, establishing authority, and learning the “ropes” of management. The course material focuses on what is expected of new managers, both from upper management as well as employees.

“Effectively Managing People, People, People”
The “people” part of management always seems to be the most unpredictable. The material in this program includes how to effectively coach people of different styles, conflict situations, and disciplinary action.

“Moving Further into Management”
Management often requires more of us than we expect, such as presenting to groups, running effective meetings, training new employees, and legal issues.
