Transitioning from a peer to a supervisor of one’s peers is very difficult.  New supervisors must adjust their mindsets and learn a variety of new skills.  This workshop provides new supervisors with ten action steps and advice to successfully transition from peer to supervisor.  We will discuss the wide array of common situations supervisors encounter in the workplace and how to navigate them.  This workshop fully involves the audience with case studies and “what would you do” scenarios.
