>>>
The Library of Michigan is launching a public library management cohort for library staff with new middle management/supervisory duties. LM is working with Andrew Sanderbeck/PCI Webinars to provide an in-depth Public Library Management cohort of up to 60 public library staff members, 30 in a Middle Management track and 30 in New Supervisors track. The cohort groups will meet at least monthly from May through September. The project includes coursework, online meetings, and 2 in-person workshop days in Lansing. The application will close on April 4th so apply soon!
The Middle Management track includes competencies to help attendees better manage themselves and others, including their bosses. Topic areas will include personal organizational skills including decision making and time management skills: one to one and team communication skills including difficult conversations and managing situations of conflict; process breakdowns and problem solving and influencing others without the authority to manage them.
The New Supervisors track consists of topics on effectively communicating with others including giving constructive feedback and managing situations of conflict. We will practice situations of coaching and managing our employees, get more comfortable with delegating to others and building relationships with others including our boss. Attendees will also sharpen personal organizational skills including decision making and time management.
