Advanced Leadership Skills for Mid-Career Managers

Motivating and Managing Today’s Diverse, Technical Workforce

Two-Day Workshop
Facilitated by Steven Cerri
Class size is limited to 24 participants

OBJECTIVES

Successful managers are constantly seeking advantages that will help them motivate and focus high-technology individuals and teams. This workshop is specifically designed for the experienced manager who wants to be more effective with today’s high-tech workforce.

This two-day workshop is filled with tools, communication protocols, and processes for individual and group dynamics, as well as personal leadership processes that will enhance any manager’s current effectiveness.

At the end of these two days, participants will understand how to optimize their management style to the project and the team; how to focus their efforts on the Six Essential Functions of Effective Management and Leadership™, and how to build independent, proactive, conscientious direct reports. In addition participants will learn how to manage people who are not only across the hall but also around the world. This course is essential for today’s high-tech manager.

"You Speak Our Language!" This statement is from a manager who took my courses previously and is now signing up three of his direct reports to take my 3-day course, "Advancing Up the Technology the "Technology Management Ladder." Here is what he said:

"You really speak the language of the engineer AND you understand management. I now understand I have to find the right person to fit the right function. Although I don't think of your classes every day, I'd guess that I think about something I learned from your classes at least once a week. Every week I think of something I learned that helps me with my work." L.A., Manager, Ball Aerospace and Technologies Corporation

"(Steven) has an aerospace background! He knows what (our company) is all about!" Tom K., Mechanical engineer.

"One of the best classes I've taken. (I)... recommend this class to entire departments together!" Kathleen M., Publications department.

"Steve is a wonderful speaker and is very knowledgeable and has enough enough relevant technical experience in his past that he presents very credible and wise. Thanks, enjoyed it." T. K., Aerospace engineer

"Over the years I have attended several classes and read some literature on leadership and management development. The insights and techniques I received from Steven Cerri's courses are by far the most useful and applicable to improve my effectiveness in dealing with people. I go back to the class handouts and notes I have taken again and again as a refresher on the subject. If you are serious about enhancing your skills in interacting with colleagues and customers, attend one of Steve Cerri's classes. You will happily return for more." Bert Obleski, Ball Aerospace mechanical engineer
