Preparing For Promotion From Peer to Boss

Having a succession plan involves developing your employees and sometimes promoting some of them into leadership positions. This can be tough for the employee, as well as peer group from which they are being promoted. How do you transition from peer to boss and be perceived as a leader? Being a leader is tough enough, but a promotion to leadership is often one of the most difficult positions to be in.

Join us for Leadership Promotion-Making the Transition from Peer to Boss, July 29, 2015, 9:00am-12:00pm. This session is complimentary for the first 15 seats, so register now! For more information or to register, please contact us at 204-957-7437 or email register@mtec.mb.ca.

Attention Event Coordinators & Planners!

It is an exciting time to be an event planner. Event planners are being called upon to develop and stage a number of events every year.

Whether you are new to the industry or established in your career, MTEC's 3- Part Training Series for Event Coordinators and Planners will provide the tools to assist you in planning an event from start to finish, covering areas such as administration, marketing, human resources, risk management and more!
This series will also be very beneficial for those of you who may not have the title of 'Event Planner', but you are the person in your organization who performs that function as part of your position, i.e.: organizing the annual golf tournament, AGM, conference, etc.

A comprehensive emerit Event Coordinator Workbook, valued at $85.00, is included in the course. Our upcoming workshop series will be held on August 12, August 13, and August 14, 2015. For more details on the course please click here .
