Leadership for Today's New Managers (II) (M406B-09)

Now that you’ve been made a manager, you have to be as good at leading the journalism as you were at producing it. Learn how to get the results your bosses expect while nurturing the trust and talent of your team. Get practical tools to help you make good decisions about people and product. Get personalized feedback from your newsroom about your strengths and challenges and customized coaching from Poynter’s experts. This is the seminar for newsroom managers with great potential but limited experience and training.

You'll learn:

  • How new managers can improve journalism and newsrooms with fresh approaches to today’s challenges
  • How to communicate, motivate, innovate and inspire individuals and teams
  • How to manage people who were once your peers, friends or bosses
  • How to set measurable standards and goals for performance
  • How to approach difficult conversations, coaching and conflict resolution

DEADLINE TO APPLY EXTENDED TO NOVEMBER 5, 2009.
