Supervisor Skills ProgramCascade Careers is proud to announce its newest Supervisor Skills training program. If your lead, first line supervisors other levels of management are in need of some basic training in building their image and their reputation, pointers on how to deal with those difficult team members, how to be and when not to be a mentor, building a quality team, and hiring hints and hiring mistakes, and how to change their thinking when it comes to discipline, and how to avoid harassment charges, we have the program for you.
Here is what we will do. We will meet with you and discuss what you are looking for in terms of developing your supervisory team and them we will develop a custom program just for your organization.
I recently returned from presenting a custom supervisory training program at a Nevada mining company. Over four days over 80 lead, shift supervisors and superintendents gained new insights on how to do a better job of hiring, supervising and developing their team members.
Here is how it works. Based on your specific needs, we will develop and present to your supervisory staff a course custom designed for them.
So the next question is what does it cost? Simple. There is no cost to you for the development and printing of all course materials a program custom designed for your supervisory team. For up to 20 participants and up to a six hour session, the course fee is $1,400 per day. Travel expenses are employer paid.
For a half day session, the course fee is $1,100 per day, plus travel expenses.
Check us out. It cost you nothing to listen to what we have to say.
One last thing. Because I accept HR consulting assignments with Washington Employers Association, it would be a conflict of interest to work with any of their members in any training. Sorry!

Read a review of this book
Jim says, "The true class act HR professional works hard at maintaining that class act image. Being a class act HR professional is not for the weak at heart. It takes courage to be successful. And believe me, the last thing those successful people ever want to do is to lose that class act reputation."
As a "People Observer" for over 40 years, Jim has seen things that help make organizations successful and he has seen mistakes that eventually cripple or destroy organizations.
In many cases, the cause of problems within an organization can be traced to an ineffective Human Resource function. Everyone has seen ineffective HR leaders. They come and go, and few remember their names. But we all remember the "Class Act" HR professionals we meet.
Here are some challenges he presents in his book to those who do want to be that class act HR professional:
- Got a plan to succeed in HR? You won't without one!
- Are you a "Class Act" HR professional or just another HR professional?
- Do you know the secrets that successful HR people know?
- What did Margaret Thatcher and General George Patton have in common?
- Think your image doesn't matter? You are wrong!
- Who said, "HR matters enormously in the good times. It defines you in the bad times."
