Whether you are a new or experienced manager, this fast-paced, two-day workshop will give you the confidence, comfort, and strategies to bring out the best in employees, whether they are underperformers or so-called “stars.” Since 1979, Decker Training has trained managers to maximize their success with a proprietary process to:

• Instill immediate confidence, even if changing roles from peer to boss.
• Motivate at both the intellectual and emotional level: coaching versus counseling.
• Deal with defensive, resistant, or challenging employees.
• Remove stress and emotion with constructive, not destructive feedback.
• Transform “softer skills” into data that can be talked about.
• Motivate employees whose motivation and career goals differ from yours.
• Create the best management environment for you and those you supervise with career-building feedback.

Truly Tailor-Made
Prior to the training, participants are given a short assignment from which Decker prepares their coaching agenda, addressing each person’s particular concerns. With this level of personalization, you can move with confidence to your next skill level or learn situation-specific strategies for common management challenges:

• Manage growth amidst continuous change.
• Use documentation in coaching employees to attain a desired result.
• Manage directs and non-directs to complete tasks successfully.
• Create an environment where skills are constantly nourished and refined.

One Expert Coach, Two Special Tools
It has proved to be a winning combination: small groups with one-on-one coaching and our proprietary step-by-step organizational tools, The Decker Pyramid Technique™ and Stones Across the Brook™. You come away with leadership skills for a lifetime at work and in your personal life.

Live and Recorded Feedback
Demos, exercises, and simulations of your employee-coaching scenarios lead to immediate improvement. Continual videotaping with live coaching and feedback ensure your goals are met. And you will become your own best coach by continually developing and nourishing your skills with a customized coaching Personal Action Plan, comprehensive manual, customized DVD, and complimentary one-hour post-workshop telephone session.
