RISE Up Manager Training
Managers have a huge influence on their teams and on organizational culture. They are dealing with day-to-day issues, like the conflicts that arise from diverse teams, and they need to set the tone and resolve problems. This training will give those in a supervisory position the tools they need to work in diverse team environments, and understand, identify and stop behaviors that jeopardize worker safety and retention. Training topics include identifying, addressing and resolving inappropriate behavior, prevention and response, and intention vs. impact. Training includes real life scenarios relevant to the construction industry and other activities designed to challenge and grow supervisory skills.
