Overview

Develop Winning Managers—the Heart of the Team
Frontline managers are an organization’s first level of management: the “people managers” across its business operations and functions. Developing frontline managers is key to an organization’s overall health and prosperity. The latest book in ATD’s successful Workshop Series, Management Development Training offers trainers of all expertise levels the tools and strategies necessary for delivering powerful professional development training for frontline managers.
Through Management Development Training, training facilitators can apply ATD’s research-based ACCEL Model—a management framework that includes five core skills necessary for managerial success (accountability, collaboration, communication, engagement, and listening and assessing)—to take new and experienced managers beyond their roles as the centers of their teams to the powerful roles as the hearts of their teams. This workshop volume demonstrates how the development of these skills can help managers positively impact every member of their team.
With expert management trainer Erica Nelson as your guide, choose between uniquely designed two-day and three-day workshops. Everything you need for workshop design and delivery is included: agendas, assessments, handouts, tools, learning activities, and PowerPoint slides. Chapters also cover customizing your own workshop, conducting needs analysis, facilitating, design and delivery, and evaluating your workshop results.
