Managing In State Government
Orientation Team
Intended Audience: DHHS Supervisors and Managers Only
Credit 1.8 CEU's
This three day program is designed for new supervisors in State government, specifically those working for the Department of Health and Human Services. In part, the program will focus on the role of the supervisor in an organization and how it differs from the task based role of the employee. While it is technical skill that usually gets a person promoted, the survival skill of a supervisor is the ability to lead others. The program will also cover policies and procedures that are unique to supervisors within State Government.
The agenda for the first day of the program includes information on: 1) Employee interviewing and selection; 2) Performance Management and 3) Motivation
The second day’s agenda will include: 1) Situational Leadership; 2) Drugs, Alcohol and EAP; 3) Personnel Issues; 5) Contract Administration/Employee Discipline and 6) ADA and Harassment.
Third day topics will include: 1) Family Medical Leave and Worker's Compensation; 3) Wellness and Safety; 4)Ethics; and 5) Diversity; and 6) Workplace Respect.
New supervisors will be notified directly as to dates and locations of the program upon SETU's notification of your promotion/hire. You will receive links to a series of on-line trainings which are required to be completed before you attend.
