Navigating a transition from coworker or team member into a Supervisor or Manager position is not as simple as applying for and accepting the job. After all, you are now responsible for overseeing one or more staff members in their roles, handling administrative tasks, and managing new relationships. If you work in Behavioral Health, you know you will encounter a variety of personalities and ways others view supervision and management. During this 90-minute webinar, participants will learn more about how to transition into this new role effectively.
Items we will focus on during this webinar:
- What’s your vision for your new position as a Supervisor or Manager?
- What is your communication style?
- What’s your feedback like and your comfort with conflict resolution?
- Have you explored your own bias around leading and managing different styles?
- How will you support staff with their career goals?
- With insight, what is your mission statement?
