"Training programs that focus on continuous practice can boost management effectiveness by nearly 70%." - HRB
Manager Mastery Lab
The Mastery Lab is designed to help managers refine and apply the skills from the Manager Essentials series, focusing on real-world situations they’ve encountered in the workplace.
Skill-building takes practice. Over the eight weeks of Manager Essentials learners work with peers to apply the learning on the job. Four weeks later, this session serves as both a target date for application and a springboard for more advanced integration and impact.
