Exercise 4

Because of rapid growth of your technology company, the executive team has asked HR to develop an internal training program. The purpose of the program is to help employees recently promoted to supervisory positions develop the leadership skill sets they need to be successful as supervisors. This will be the first formal training program for your small company. As part of the process, you want to consider the learning styles of the new supervisors. To assist you in developing a successful, results-oriented program, review various training websites, including www.agelesslearner.com.
A. To meet the needs of the varied learning styles and maximize the learning potential of the participants, what training techniques should be implemented?
B. Identify the content topics that you will recommend be included in the program to ensure the development of successful leaders.
