Having successful cause-driven managers at the YMCA is critical to the success of all YMCAs. It is important for new managers to get the tools, information and resources they need to be successful from the start. It is also important for managers who have been in their role for a while to revisit these resources and reflect upon their impact as a manager. Introduction to Leading Others is a two-day survey course that focuses on what it takes for cause-driven managers/leaders to be successful.
The course covers subjects ranging from very practical "how to" topics needed for managing day-to-day tasks, to higher level strategies for coaching and effectively leading and developing staff and volunteers, the human capital of our organization. Sample course topics include, creating an engaging workplace environment, developing diverse and inclusive teams, coaching for success, delegating effectively, being a YMCA cause-driven manager/leader, and establishing effective and meaningful relationships.
