How often does this happen within your organization?
Employees with exceptional skills in their technical specialty are rewarded with promotion to management. It soon becomes apparent that while they certainly know their specialty, they have no training in managing and motivating a team. “People problems” arise, productivity and morale decline.
Turn things around with the SHRM PMQ.
It’s designed to build People Managers’ skills in the four key areas HR executives say matter most to enterprise success and workplace culture*:
- Effective Communication
- Performance Management
- Team Leadership
