The Joys of Being In Charge: Tailor-Made Training for Supervisory Staff

Some library staff seek out supervisory opportunities, and some staff have supervisory duties bestowed upon them! When the boss is away, how prepared, comfortable, and empowered are staff at your library to step up and take charge? On the flipside, are there seasoned supervisors in your organization who may have learned to supervise under "trial by fire" and need clarity on expectations, or even some myth-busting of outdated organizational knowledge? Join us to learn how one public library system developed a clear, comprehensive, and (dare we say it?) fun half-day training for frontline supervisory staff at all levels. Help remove the hesitation and put the joy into being in-charge!
