Thursday, November 19, 2026 · 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM · Hutto, Texas
$199 per person. Lunch and your workbook are included.
Your registration also includes a virtual Lunch-and-Learn on Friday, November 13, at noon Central.
One week you are great at the job. The next week you are responsible for everyone else doing it. Most supervisors are promoted for the work they did, then left to figure out the people part alone.
Principles of Supervision is the manual. In one day you will work through six skills. Each one is built around a true story, a model you can use the next morning, and an exercise with your own team’s names on it.
Each skill gets its own hour: a story, a model and time to apply it.
SKILL 1
Manage your emotions, your discipline and your schedule. Your first leadership challenge is you.
SKILL 2
Set expectations people can say back to you, listen so concerns reach you early, and delegate with the C.L.A.R.I.T.Y. system.
SKILL 3
Spot the Drama Triangle, redirect a complaint to the person it is about, and steady your team.
SKILL 4
Build a rhythm of one-on-ones, coach with the S.O.F.T. model, and take care of your top performers.
SKILL 5
Praise what people do right, set standards that do not move, and inspire great results.
SKILL 6
Know what great looks like, interview every candidate the same way, and onboard with a 90-day roadmap.
A true, documented story, from Benjamin Franklin and Abraham Lincoln to the 2002 Oakland A’s.
A model you can explain to someone else and use the next morning.
An exercise in your workbook with your own team’s names on it.
