NEPPA has partnered with Dale Carnegie Training to bring their high caliber supervisory and leadership training in-house.  

 

Dale Carnegie trainers take participants through the Cycle of Performance Change process to create an environment that allows transformation to happen.  

 

In every Dale Carnegie program, participants are constantly reflecting on how utilizing the skill or tool would positively impact themselves and their organization as well. From the very beginning, participants are encouraged to identify the changes they desire and, more specifically, the behaviors they are seeking to change or improve. They are then asked to imagine the specific results they will achieve because of these new behaviors.

Managing across generations is an essential key in creating a team that puts ideas into actions.
