The Leadership Institute will offer its Managerial Skill Series (MSS) of workshops beginning Nov. 13, 2018. The sequenced curriculum focuses on foundational supervisory and managerial skills.
MSS is designed to help transform great supervisors and managers into exceptional leaders. It features both experts from throughout the laboratory as well as external facilitators to help participants develop and hone their managerial skills.
The series is recommended for staff new to management, those managers wanting a refresher and for frontline supervisors. Managers who have recently joined Argonne also will benefit from immersion into the laboratory’s culture. Anybody who is directly responsible for someone else’s performance coaching is considered part of the target audience.
It is strongly recommended participants attend all sessions unless they have previously attended one of the classes. Some classes are all-day sessions. Others are four hours long, and participants can choose a morning or afternoon class. Class sizes are limited. Participants are encouraged to register as soon as possible.
