You’ll be encouraged to bring your most difficult personnel scenarios to the group for practice and valuable feedback. Throughout the bootcamp, you’ll also develop an intervention plan specifically tailored to challenging people you’re managing, and it will also document how the EM & EM model can help you to […]
