Custom Program

"A couple of years ago we identified the need to offer a program to build a core set of skills and tools for first level leaders in our company. Many of our first time supervisors have come from a background of science or engineering and while intelligent in their field, they lacked foundational competencies in leading people. St. Thomas was very flexible and did a great job customizing the course content to fit our specific needs. The instructors were personable and highly competent in delivering the course at our business locations. I'm happy to say we are about to offer this foundational program for the third time at our company."
