Recommendations for training resources - new supervisors
Looking for recommendations for free or low-cost management training forums. I recently joined a company that has no formal training and professional development in place for employees, and my new team has very new supervisors (first time in role). Given I don't have budget yet for training, I thought I'd ask what are your favorite blogs, forums, etc. to pick up development tips. Thanks!

Hi Kelly. I think it depends on which what do you want them to get focus.
There are several good courses in LinkedIn Learning about time management, conflict resolution, feedback...
You may look also to Management 3.0 https://management30.com/ and one-on-one tools like https://soapboxhq.com/features/one-on-ones
Best!

Thanks Patricia, they are all new in role and young in career. Since I've just started working with them, it will take me a bit to understand what each will need specifically, but these are great resources. I'll check them out.

Two of my favorites are Training Magazine (they have a wide variety of topics) - https://trainingmag.com/ and SmartBrief on Leadership - [email protected] (great articles on leadership).

Tom Henschel's blog and podcast, The Look and Sound of Leadership is a favorite of mine.

Hi Kelly - Try Coursera.com or SHRM.org.
You also might think about buying them some workbooks and hosting either mentoring sessions with more seasoned supervisors or setting up weekly check in's to help them get them comfortable.

Thanks Jacquelyn! I'm in touch with my HR contact here, so will put her on the SHRM path, and I'll checkout Coursera.
