Management Skills for the 21st Century
New managers, potential managers, and current managers who could use some rejuvenation: come explore how to get the best from your staff. We'll address the what-ifs, the how'd-that-happen, and the why-me's of daily life in management, supervision, and leadership. Explore the concepts of accountability, communication, motivation, and influence. These powerful tools play a vital role in successfully engaging today's workforce. Pre-registration is required for this all-day program. You must register for the conference first, and then select the Management Skills option.

The early bird registration date is Friday, April 25. Visit ReachingForward.netto register online, download the registration form, and for more information on the conference. Conference registration includes a continental breakfast and lunch.
