Employees will examine how the supervisory role differs from a non supervisory position, the effects of personal power vs. positional power, the importance of self development and networking activities to growth as a supervisor. The workshop is a must for new supervisors. It is designed to enhance supervisors' evaluation skills through setting and communicating performance standards, documenting performance, and conducting effective performance reviews. These training sessions are designed to introduce new professionals and salaried staff to the University's performance appraisal system. They should also become familiar with their supervisor's obligations and responsibilities as enumerated in the University's Performance Appraisal Policy.
Topics covered include object and transaction codes and recent accounting system changes.
Secretarial Seminars Partnerships in Learning. That's the force driving a new program at the University. Spring 1992 will see the debut of three Secretarial Seminars in southern Delaware, co-sponsored by the following University units continuing education, employee development, women's affairs and employee assistance and wellness. The seminars are designed to encourage participation from the entire southern Delaware secretarial community, allowing non-University secretaries to attend for a seminar fee. It is expected that the opportunities to meet colleagues in similar positions from other industries will foster the sharing of resources and information.
