Supervising Off-Site Employees
Who Are Out-Of-Sight … But Not Out-Of-Mind

Enhance your long-distance management skills during this one-day seminar!

Program Description:

Master the Skills You Need to Keep Off-Site Employees Positive and Productive

You already know it takes special skills to manage employees you have little or no contact with. To stay on top of what they’re doing, you study reports … spend hours on the phone … and visit when you can. You also try to find out the real truth when rumors about off-site employees come across your desk.

No matter how much you put into it, it’s difficult to understand what’s really happening at a location miles and miles away. It becomes urgent when you run into problems, like a star employee who isn’t performing at his or her best … or a position that nobody seems to stay with for more than three months … or when financial results tell a different story than the one you receive from the staff on site.

Attend this intensive one-day seminar to learn how to put your worries to rest and get more from your team than you ever thought possible.

This seminar was specifically developed for managers of off-site employees. And it’s constantly updated so you get insights on the latest and greatest technological advances that can help you manage over the miles. This program focuses on your biggest concerns and arms you with proven strategies you will use to better manage your off-site staff.

After the session, you’ll be able to get out-of-sight employees to keep you in mind and follow your instructions to the letter. You’ll discover the secrets to getting staff to pull together and work as a team. Plus, you’ll find new ways to keep the lines of communication flowing smoothly, so you get the information you need to know when you need to know it.

You’ll use new long-distance leadership skills to motivate exceptional performance and solve conflicts quickly and easily — even when you can’t be there in person.

Expertly Handle Your Long-Distance Duties
Issues involving people are hard for most managers to deal with in person. But for you, the challenges multiply, because you can’t be there to monitor body language, facial expressions — all those nonverbal cues managers use to discover what’s really happening with their people.

And it’s hard enough to deal with hiring, evaluating, and, yes, firing when you see your staff day-to-day.

So your job gets especially difficult when you have a problem employee off-site. On the other hand, you may not even be sure you’ve correctly identified and recognized good employees, either. And you want to deal with both appropriately, to promote the excellence you need from your staff and support a positive work environment.
When you’re miles away, you may wonder if you’re being fair … too easy … or maybe even falling for a good act.

That’s why you must attend this valuable off-site management seminar. Learn how to handle personnel issues confidently, quickly and legally. Discover the long-distance people skills that let off-site employees know you’re attentive to their needs and a member of the team, but you will also deal with problems appropriately and immediately.

A Guarantee You Can Bank On
You’ll gain solid long-distance leadership skills you will use immediately to manage your off-site employees better. We guarantee it. You’ll be completely satisfied with the training you receive, or we’ll refund your entire registration fee.
