The Building a Culture of Engagement: Virtual Training Series is a three-session online course to help frontline supervisors and managers boost employee satisfaction in their agencies.

Participants take away low- and no-cost strategies to use appreciation, communication and empowerment to build their workforce. These online training sessions use research-supported methods, which have been successfully applied across government, to help address real-time challenges. In addition to developing a useful set of tools, participants also hear from a panel of experts, including former government executives, who will discuss their experiences and offer suggestions to effectively improve workforce engagement.

Through this training, participants will:

Gain easily implementable practices for recognizing their direct reports
Improve their ability to effectively communicate feedback and understand employee challenges
Receive insights on how to empower and develop others to gain their maximum potential

“The format was great. The length of sessions was perfect. The participants were knowledgeable and professional. The guest speakers had real world experiences to share. Overall excellent sessions.”
