The Mansis Certificate in Front Line Leadership Skills is a 33 hour, skill training program for developing team leaders, lead hands and front-line supervisors. Customized for client organizations, this 9 module program teaches participants critical supervisory leadership skills which can be successfully used immediately back on the job. A special complementary, 3 hour executive overview is provided for senior management to learn their role in maximizing the benefit to the organization for this investment in front-line leadership skill development.

Size and Format of Workshops:

Most modules are conducted with groups of up to 24 participants except a few where the maximum class size is 12.  Workshops consist of short lecturettes, videotape and film presentations, role play (skill practice), group assignments and discussions, and case studies. All modules have short workbook materials to accompany each class and a special text to accompany the program.  Workshops are all taught be highly qualified, experienced Mansis Trainers.

Follow-up Refresher and Assessment:

Action Plans for individual improvement in these skills may be developed, to be reviewed with the participant's supervisor.

Flexibility of Program:

Workshops can be scheduled in blocks of 3 hours to fit the needs of the client organization.  Classes can be taught on-site (if conditions are favorable), or in a hotel, and can be offered morning, afternoon or evening, weekday or weekend.

Customization:

All the content of this Program was developed by Mansis, and can be customized to meet the needs of any client, for any industry.
