Marymead - Making the transition - Specialist to Manager

Making the transition.........................Specialist to Manager

Most people are appointed as supervisors because they are good
specialists. While there's nothing wrong with that, they often aren't
provided with any training for their new role and so struggle.

Presented by Peter Holdsworth, Director Pathways Training
This program has been designed specifically for those working in
community service organisations and participants will leave with a
toolkit of practical tips, techniques and ideas that you will be able to
use immediately.
