Too often, new managers start a supervisory or managerial position with little-to-no training on what it means to be an effective leader or what it takes to be a good manager. As a result, up to 50% of first-time managers fail within the first year. In response, WILD has created an in-the-moment learning program that focuses on the core skills for successful people management.
How it works
The course consists of four online sessions of an hour each. Presented live, the sessions are customized to support corporate strategy, goals, and values.
