Best Practices for New People Leaders

If you’re new to supervision/management, you probably have one huge fear: that you’ll fail. While you probably became a manager because you excelled at your previous position, managing people brings a whole world of new challenges that require new skills. People can be unpredictable, and if you’re not properly equipped, the threat of failure is very real. In this course, Kirsten Blakemore teaches how to be a heart-forward manager who leads with compassion, curiosity, and integrity. She shares specific tips on how to lead teams remotely and how to create a cohesive and open team culture. Kirsten covers how to handle tricky tasks like giving difficult feedback and managing tough conversations. Finally, she gives advice on how to manage time as a leader, and how to manage a team to ensure their success. Join Kirsten as she shares her roadmap to make your transition into people leadership easier, leaving you prepared to enjoy your promotion and thrive on your new career path.

Recruiting Veterans

With roughly 200,000 men and women transitioning out of the military each year, veterans are a rich source of talent to tap. Through their military training, veterans learn the importance of strong leadership and connecting jobs to mission and values. In this course, veteran recruiting expert Lida Citroën helps recruiters identify and appreciate the differences between post-9/11 veteran and civilian candidates, as well as the qualities, skills, and talents veterans offer to employers. She also addresses questions on building your company brand to be attractive to veterans. What appeals to veteran candidates and what turns them off? Where should companies spend money and resources? How do you identify the military skills you want to attract?
Last, Lida discusses ways to adapt your hiring process, teams, and systems to accommodate veteran employees, emphasizing onboarding and retention of veteran candidates.
