Whether you are an aspiring, new, or experienced manager, it’s important to always look for ways to develop your leadership skills. This program teaches you how to create happier, healthier, more motivated teams where everyone feels supported. In just eight two-hour sessions, you will learn the skills you need to effectively lead your team and your organization toward achieving its mission.

Learn from Someone Who’s Been Where You Are.
