Managing the People Jigsaw
Most managers are told to manage numbers, systems, and processes, and to get things done they need to motivate and engage the workforce. Does this sound familiar? The art of managing people is challenging, because most managers have never been trained in an integrative model that addresses management strategy, decision making, people's choices and behaviors, and exploring the skills needed to fill those roles. The number one corporate advantage is a motivated and skilled workforce. The goal of this course is to help managers achieve this end. The overall objective of this program is to provide managers with a set of strategies for managing daily business decisions and to explore the skills and strategies needed to implement them.

Mediation and Negotiation: A Manager's Guide
Disagreement and conflict are common in most organizations and if not resolved can become costly in regard to both productivity and relationships. Mediation and negotiation are two core skills that help managers avoid unwarranted and unnecessary delays that conflict or disagreements generate in the workplace. Both skills have an application for helping parties formulate agreement; however, there are clearly times when a manager will be best served by using mediation skills and others when it makes more sense to negotiate a position. This program introduces these two skills and helps managers apply them in their daily roles.
