In a competitive market, companies rely even more on managers to make sound business decisions and effectively manage people. Management skills can be learned and improved.
The Fisher Business Education Series is a suite of one-day programs designed for managers to develop specific skills and competencies and advance others. Sessions are taught by nationally ranked faculty, with peer learning as an important element in the series.
Faculty and experienced training and development professionals have selected the FBES courses, all of which are geared for improving performance as a manager. The courses are offered separately so managers can choose which courses are of greatest value.
Program Format
The distinctive one-day program design enables candidates to practice and perfect skills taught in a single module prior to attending the next course. Or, if your candidate is attending one course they return to the job and may apply learning immediately — which is a powerful form of Level 3-4 ROI (based on the Kirkpatrick Model).
Instruction format includes case study, discussion and lecture, group exercises and role play.
Who Should Attend: The Fisher Business Education Series is designed for manager-level individuals who are “rising stars” eager to get ahead and in general, individuals who want to sharpen and update their management skills, gain new business knowledge, exchange experiences and prepare themselves to advance in management positions.
