What differentiates Front Line Leadership from other programs?
Our classroom training process incorporates a variety of structured activities and content that are engaging, fast-paced, and immediately applicable to the workplace. We reinforce learning through between-session, structured activities that encourage productive dialogue between supervisors and their teams. These activities improve communication, reduce conflict, and contribute to increased employee engagement. We provide feedback to the participant’s manager through monthly updates of what is covered in class, expected outcomes, and ways to follow up with participants to reinforce learning.
Is it possible to pick and choose which of the modules we want?
Yes. You may select specific modules to address the outcomes you are looking for. We suggest you commit to at least 3-4 modules with the associated activities to have a real impact on behavior and culture change.
How often do we have to schedule modules?
FLL is designed for flexible implementation. While some clients schedule sessions every 2-4 weeks, others may schedule multiple sessions at one time. We suggest no more than 4 weeks between sessions so that program momentum is maintained.
