Manager Development: Driving Organizational Success

Managers serve a crucial role in their organizations, acting as a bridge between senior leaders and employees. Strong managers foster a productive work environment, increase morale, and motivate their employees. They are also able to grow and shape their teams and influence the direction and success of their organizations. However, more than half of managers said in a recent study that their organizations provided little or no training to prepare them, and 63 percent said being a manager was more difficult than they expected it to be. In order to perform at the highest level, managers need training that equips them with the skills to succeed and to make sure their employees succeed.
