Description

Some managers inspire, some motivate, and others fail miserably to engage their employees. To be a great manager, you must have an extensive set of skills – from planning and delegation to communication and motivation. An effective manager takes responsibility for ensuring that each individual within his/her department succeeds and that the team or business unit achieves results. Successful managers require both talent and skill. For your business to grow and remain healthy, your managers must master certain basic skills in management and leadership. The basic skills include problem solving and decision making, planning, meeting management, delegation, communications and managing themselves. Because the skill set is so wide, it's tempting to build skills in the areas of management that they are already comfortable with. But, for your long-term success, it's wise to analyze their skills in all areas of management – and then to challenge them to improve in all of these areas.

Program Description:
Building effective management skills can help you and your organization succeed in today’s environment. This workshop will offer you management competencies to help you develop and refine the skills you need to manage people more effectively—and be ready for unexpected change. The program will explore both traditional and non-traditional management styles through education, best practices, and developmental activities.
 
Topics:

  • Overview and History of Management
  • Comparison of Traditional vs. Non-Traditional Management Styles
  • Developing a Personal Leadership Brand
  • Having Goal Directed Drive
  • Building a Law of Legacy

Speakers:
Dr. Nicole Evans Frank Ingraham
  
Bios:

Dr. Nicole Evans, SPHR works at Goldey-Beacom College as a professor, teaching business management courses. Dr. Evans serves as the faculty advisor for The Society for Human Resources Management (SHRM) and Women in Networks (WIN). She previously taught at Wilmington University as an academic advisor and adjunct instructor. Nicole's career began in the financial services industry. She performed various management roles including operations, compensation & benefits, recruiting, training & development, and risk management. In addition she owned and operated her own insurance and financial consulting business for several years before moving to academia. Her research is focused on a variety of management topics using different quantitative and qualitative techniques. Her most recent 2015 publication was in the Academy of Business Research Journal. In 2014 at a conference in New Orleans, Dr. Evans received the best paper award for her research titled "A Comparative Analysis of Graduate Student Perceptions of Learning Effectiveness in Online Versus Face-to-Face Courses." Dr. Evans is a member of several professional organizations including the Academy of Business Research, The Society of Human Resources Management, and Delaware Ace Women's Network. She serves on the board for the Delaware Society of Human Resources Management. In addition she frequently volunteers for the American Diabetes Association.

Frank Ingraham, SPHR, SHRM-SCP, transitions his deep DuPont roots of business leadership focus (e.g., labor relations, human resources, Six Sigma/Lean project management, training & development, and community relations) and his client-focused consultative services (e.g., collaborative communications, professional coaching, and conflict resolution mediation) to the adult-learning educational environment of Wilmington University as an Adjunct Instructor teaching within the College of Business, focused on course work such as Strategy in Organizations. Building upon his years of successful mastermind group facilitation, and versatile educational leadership, Frank’s adaptive flexibility now equips adults with an expanded lifelong learning approach toward achieving greater success by examining their personal goal setting impact on quality of life satisfaction. Frank has a long service record of volunteering with the Wilmington University Alumni Relations, the Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR), and the Delaware Center for Justice (DCJ).  A graduate of Wilmington University’s Master of Science Human Resource program, Frank continues his lifelong learning in the Leadership and Innovation WilmU doctoral program, with a May, 2017 graduation,.  Frank has also received certification from the John Maxwell Team (as a founding partner) to speak, teach & coach on Maxwell’s leadership principles, as well as being named the 2016 Delaware Center for Justice Mediator of the Year.  Frank enjoys spending time with his family, the beaches of Delaware and Maryland, as well as searching family roots within the hobby of geneology.
