Enroll your supervisors, managers and team leaders in our front line leadership program
The #1 choice for HR professionals in front line leadership training in manufacturing, distribution and operations.
People don’t quit bad jobs, they quit bad leaders. Your supervisors, managers and team leaders can create a culture that increases retention, engagement and productivity, or they can create a culture of apathy or hostility that drives up turnover and creates more headaches for HR to clean up.
Front line leadership doesn’t come naturally to everyone. Employees promoted from the shop floor into leadership roles often struggle with the transition. That’s where we come in.
Designed for supervisors, managers and team leaders, our front line leadership program:
-
Equips your front line leaders with the skills they need to build a collaborative, cohesive team.
-
Helps you to create a more engaged and motivated workforce.
-
Increases employee retention and reduces turnover.
-
Empowers your organization to achieve its best ever operating results.
Your front line leaders will discover:
-
Expectations of a Front Line Leader
-
Winning the Day
-
Leading by Example
-
Leadership Styles
-
Motivating and Engaging Employees
-
Effective Communication
-
Leading Change
-
Addressing Behavior and Performance Issues
-
Accountability, Empowerment and Training
-
Managing Conflict
Resources to empower your front line leaders
Your front line leaders leave our training program equipped with the ideas, motivation and tools to succeed.
Guided by an experienced facilitator, our workshops are engaging, relatable and practical including in-class simulations, case studies, role plays, videos and electronic polling!
The variety of teaching methods and the opportunity to learn from colleagues in other companies creates an unforgettable learning experience.

Access to our Leader Behavior Builder Platform

Leader Behavior Builder™ System
Application and sustainment are essential to get the most from your training investment. Participants will commit to implementing at least two insights from the training session. We will do a quick check-in with them by email or text message between sessions and for 30-days following the training to document how they have applied the course concepts and the impact on their team. We will share those results with you so you can see a return on your training investment.
Coaching/Check-in Conversation
Participants will share with their manager the key insights gained from the training, their leadership strengths assessment, their vision for their department and how they are planning to apply the training back on the job.
We provide a Manager Toolkit and video so the managers understand the role they play in supporting the participants. Managers will see a detailed list of what is being covered in the course and some suggested coaching questions they can use to help the participants as they put the course concepts into action.
