As a class participant – in person and virtual – the Terri you see on the screen is as real as the in person Terri!
I have found the class, 5 Critical Skills for Supervisors, to be helpful and informative. The course offers a wealth of tools to use to support improved communication among team members, reviews the challenges of balancing performance expectations with people’s needs and challenges, and the breakout sessions allows us to dive into these topics in more depth, meet great people, and share ideas. The course is well paced, and maintains your interest throughout. I highly recommend it.
