Who should attend?
Creative managers and team leads with fewer than five years of experience, more tenured managers who want to take advantage of a formal management training opportunity or whose businesses are growing, along with select junior team members who are transitioning into a management position in the future. You can come away from this training with strategies and best practices that can be immediately implemented with your team.
