4 Insights from Running a New Manager Training Program

22 minutes

Over the last 4 years, we've built and evolved our new manager training program called the Leadership Accelerator and I took some time to reflect on the key insights learned during that time.

In this episode, we'll discuss:

Peer support vs. individual learning

Mindset vs. skill training

Good leadership vs. right leadership

Isolated training vs. integrated training
