21st Century Management for Small Business Owners  

If you own a small business, you work in the most complex workplace ever. The people with whom you work are different from co-workers, employees, and clients of the past. The intellectual and technological challenges are far greater than they have ever been. Profitability demands and government restrictions are tighter than in any environment in recent memory. Today’s new rules demand new managers. Just as in the past, today’s small business owners must motivate themselves and others, set priorities, make decisions, communicate clearly and face challenges. However, today’s owners and managers must also understand personality styles, operate without clear boundaries due to constant change, deal with a higher stress level than ever before and create new reward systems. This seminar offers a wide range of practical information that allows managers, supervisors, and entrepreneurs of today to manage more effectively. In the program you will understand: How personality styles effect our leadership and management styles, How to “catch people doing things right” and retain good employees, How constant change effects learning and managing relationships, How negativity can destroy a workplace, The only five resources you and your team have, How to deal with underperforming employees, How to be a better teacher – which is what great managers really are, When it is time to be The Boss. This seminar focuses on the fact that management is about getting more done through others. Seminar will be held on VGCC’s Main Campus, Building 7, Room 7107.
