| Mediation Skills for the Workplace |
| Conflicts in the workplace can arise from a variety of sources. Effective managers need to not only understand the common causes and development of tensions in the workplace but create workplaces where employees work together instead of against one another. This course will introduce managers to principles and techniques for trust-building, "interest-based" negotiation for managers, collaborative decision-making, and communication techniques which supervisors and managers can use to achieve productivity while reducing tensions and conflict in the workplace. The five-day format gives plenty of time for practicing these principles and techniques. |

| Emerging Leaders Workshop |
| As an individual is promoted to increasingly higher levels of management and leadership, he or she moves from specific technical skills to management and leadership skills. The transition is not always easy and challenges new leaders not only to understand the leadership context in which work is done, but focus on developing solid management competencies. This course is aimed at new managers who have been in their position for less than a year or for those who plan to move into management within the next year. Participants will be able to assess their own leadership potential and to map a career management path that will identify development opportunities to enhance and strengthen their leadership competencies and potential. |
