This dynamic workshop tackles the major components that add up to effective management. Participants are presented with some practical strategies to acquire more control and develop momentum along the management track. Successful managers need to develop their competence with task issues like planning, staffing, allocating resources and personnel; and people issues like delegation, motivation, influencing, and coaching. Special emphasis is placed on managing "survivors" in the workplace. A model for recommitting and realigning discontented workers is presented, based on Dr. Marvin Gottlieb and Lori Conkling’s book, Managing the Workplace Survivors: Organizational Downsizing and the Commitment Gap.

Audience: Management and Supervisory personnel.
