The foundation every manager needs to lead with clarity and confidence
Why This Course?
Whether you’re brand-new to management, expanding your responsibilities, or leading a new team, stepping into a management role can feel overwhelming. What works as a peer doesn’t always translate when you’re responsible for results through others.
The New Manager’s Essentials Lab is your launchpad for success. In just two weeks, you’ll build a strong foundation in the skills and mindset that make managers effective from day one. You’ll leave with the confidence and tools to establish credibility, align your team, and set them up for long-term success.
Why It's Essential
Managing people is one of the most challenging—and rewarding—roles you’ll ever step into. Without preparation, managers risk missteps that lead to lost productivity, disengagement, and turnover. This course gives you practical strategies, clear “how-tos,” and expert support so you can:
-
Avoid common early mistakes that erode trust and credibility
-
Accelerate your team’s performance from the start
-
Lead with clarity in today’s fast-changing workplace
What You'll Learn
By completing this program, you will be able to:
-
Build trust and rapport quickly to set the tone for strong relationships.
-
Set and communicate clear goals at both the individual and team levels.
-
Establish accountability with confidence, without damaging relationships.
-
Lay the groundwork for long-term growth, building habits and practices that accelerate your leadership effectiveness.
What's the ROI?
The cost of a poorly prepared manager is high—lost productivity, disengaged employees, and preventable turnover. For $895, participants gain skills that not only build confidence but also protect against the costly impact of misaligned leadership.
How We're Different
Unlike generic training programs, this lab blends:
-
Live interaction with expert facilitators
-
Peer learning that helps you see multiple perspectives
-
Direct application to your real-world management challenges
You’ll walk away with tools you can use immediately—not theory that collects dust.
