Brandwein on Super Staff SuperVision: The Quick Course on Outstanding Skills to Coach, Motivate, & Bring Out the Best in Staff

Overview

Get your directors, site directors, team leaders, supervisors, and other members of your Leadership Team—new or experienced—trained in one dynamic online seminar! (And it’s also invaluable for those who train the Team.)


This is the acclaimed, skill-packed, one-of-a-kind training that receives rave reviews (please see below) and is presented by Michael Brandwein, the award-winning, internationally recognized author of the number one national bestselling book that’s considered the “must have” source on the subject, Super Staff SuperVision.


Leadership Team members learn what to say and do every day to be one of the very best leaders at camp, including:

  • 6 Paths: the six essential things Leadership Team members must do every day when “walking around” and how to get them done brilliantly,
  • Identify the exact behaviors we want to develop in our staff,
  • Michael’s CDOS technique to coach staff to learn and use those behaviors,
  • The key secret to motivating staff: The one “magic” question and how to use it,
  • Motivating staff and building professionalism and responsibility (“It’s a real job!”),
  • Managing tough staff behavior calmly and confidently, replacing it with great choices, and
  • More campers, more retention—increasing program creativity to stand out from the rest
