Target Audience: This is an interactive, online training for new supervisors/managers (state employees) who have been promoted from within.  In order to participate, you will need strong Wi-Fi with a working camera and microphone on your computer (attendees will be asked to keep their cameras on).  Attendees must be able to attend the full 3-hour training.  There is no cost to attend and attendance is limited.

You were promoted to a new role and now you will supervise people who were once your coworkers.  This change in position and power can be difficult, stressful, and sometimes outright awkward just as much as it can be exciting.  How are you going to handle yourself?  How will you work with those who were your peers?  Join us in this session as we cover new supervisor topics related to accountability, communication, collaboration, and coaching.  During this interactive session, you will be provided with tools to help you become more efficient, proficient, and confident in your new role.
