Now includes 6 In Person Workshops, virtual group coaching sessions & supplementary, self-paced eLearning Modules.  

The role of the manager in today’s uncertain and quickly changing workplace has shifted dramatically. They need to do more to meet the needs and expectations of their talented, independent and, in many cases, remote workforce.

They must serve as coach and mentor, be accessible and remain communicative. Their responsibilities are larger than assuring the work is performed; they have to ensure that workers are content as well. The level of responsibility and accountability placed on managers is greater today than it has ever been which is why your managers need training and support now more than ever. 

MEA’s Foundational Manager Series supports your managers with meeting the ever-changing demands of their roles.  Through our blended learning approach, participants learn the critical management skills they need to succeed.  The skills are first introduced in our instructor-led workshops and then supplemented and reinforced through the virtual Group Coaching sessions and eLearning courses.  With the Group Coaching sessions  participants are given the opportunity to reflect upon what they’ve learned to date, discuss what they’ve been able to apply and explore any roadblocks all in the safety of a confidential session led by an ICF Certified Coach.  This blended approach includes all the elements necessary for maximum learning and application of new and necessary skills. 

Managers, supervisors and team leads will have a chance to explore six critical topics for their development. 

Now Includes:

-Group Coaching Sessions

Participants are given the opportunity to reflect upon what they’ve learned to date, discuss what they’ve been able to apply and explore any roadblocks.

-Self-Paced eLearning Modules for participants

MEA now includes eLearning Modules that reinforce the learning from each virtual classroom allowing the learner to go deeper. Each module includes a Job Aide for application of concepts on the job.

-Coaching Guides for the participant’s manager

Coaching guides are available upon request for each session. The goal is to loop the manager into the learning process making their job easier to support their employee’s learning.  The guide includes key coaching questions to ask the learner, copies of the Action Plan and eLearning Job Aides from each class for the learner to complete and much more.
