INCREASE EMPLOYEE RETENTION WITH MAKAU TRAINING
Front Line Managers Rise to the Next Level with Professional Development Training
Orem, UT March 23, 2006 – Today, Makau Corporation, your next-generation training partner, offers a list of professional development courses and workshops to meet an organization’s unique needs and move them to the next level.
By developing professional skills among managers and staff, organizations not only increase employee retention, they can dramatically improve their business cycle times. Consider the cycle time of key events in a growing organization. How long does it take to fill a key staff position? How much time is spent satisfying a disgruntled client? How quickly are big deals negotiated to a close? All these issues go back to the influencing skills of management and staff. By helping front line managers collaborate more and make better decisions, organizations create an environment for improvement and growth.
According to Bob Shawgo, Vice President of Marketing with Makau Corporation, managers who understand the principles of influence and collaboration are most likely to drive organizational improvement and growth.
“Front line managers are the backbone of most organizations,” said Shawgo. “They are the face of the organization to customers and actually make most of the day to day decisions that collectively determine the bottom-line profitability or mission success of the organization. We want to help managers and staff to develop professional skills.”
Below is a list of Makau’s most popular professional development workshops. Makau is always ready to customize these, or other workshops to meet an organization’s unique needs.
