10-part, 49-lesson 'It's Okay to Be the Boss' video training program on CD featuring Bruce Tulgan

Based on Bruce Tulgan's best-selling book, IT'S OKAY TO BE THE BOSS, this program is an interactive, computer based training tool that can be used live on a pc or on a network. The program contains 10 prereadings with 10 corresponding quick facilitator guides, 49 videos featuring Bruce (1-5 minutes in length), 49 workbooks with brainstorming questions and exercises/applications, and Bruce's answers to the 39 questions about people management most frequently asked by managers.

What Makes This Program Different

• One of the top management trainers in the world, Bruce Tulgan is internationally recognized as one of the foremost experts on leading people and managing performance. Bruce has trained tens of thousands of leaders and managers in hundreds of organizations ranging from Aetna to Wal-Mart, from the Army to the YMCA. Bruce consistently receives rave reviews and the highest evaluations. This program brings Bruce directly to learners in video and print and captures what makes Bruce's programs so effective at reaching, persuading, and teaching real managers in the real world. Just as he does in his live seminars, Bruce brings to this program his world-class keynote-level presenting ability. As a result, this program is a blend of compelling insight, laugh-out-loud humor, and concrete best practices with immediate application.
• The content is based on fifteen years of front-lines research among real managers in the real world. You won't find any pie-in-the-sky management theory in this program. Instead you will find dozens of best practices that can be implemented immediately by anyone in a supervisory position. Learners can complete a lesson and immediately try out the best practice, and then move on to another lesson and immediately try out that best practice, and so on. Learners will learn concrete techniques to:
- Build relationships of trust and confidence with employees.
- Delegate tasks, responsibilities and projects.
- Keep employees focused and moving in the right direction.
- Increase productivity, quality, retention of high-performers, and turnover among low-performers.
- Sharply reduce waste, inefficiency, errors, down-time, and conflict among employees.
• The program is very easy to use. Basic system requirements are simply an IBM-based computer and a web browser. NOTE: You'll need at least one computer with a CD-reader/player if you'd like to copy the files from the CD to your computer network.
