Professional Development
It’s my pleasure to share good news with you! We are open for registration from January 23 until March 17 for both of our SPRING Leadership Academies – AIM and 5 Critical Skills. These courses are open to the public – you can attend as an individual or sign up with your peers. Our Virtual Engagement System allows you to continue your leadership development in a safe and engaging manner.
Curious about the Virtual Engagement System? Here is a sampling of the comments we have received:
As a class participant – in person and virtual – the Terri you see on the screen is as real as the in person Terri!
I have found the class, 5 Critical Skills for Supervisors, to be helpful and informative. The course offers a wealth of tools to use to support improved communication among team members, reviews the challenges of balancing performance expectations with people’s needs and challenges, and the breakout sessions allows us to dive into these topics in more depth, meet great people, and share ideas. The course is well paced, and maintains your interest throughout. I highly recommend it.
AIM is a 5-session leadership development program designed to teach the fundamental habits, actions, and emotional intelligence required of high performers, supervisors, and managers.
