Our instructor, Dr.Spencer, was incredibly effective. I found it incredibly helpful that she did not simply "plow through" the material module-by-module in the book, but rather focused on delivering concepts, using detailed examples drawing both from her extensive experience and from the experience of those in the class, and tying thing together to reinforce the material.

The seminar was very good. The leader was great and very knowledgeable and the AMA rep that sat outside and helped us with paperwork and guidance was wonderful. She was very sweet and helpful.

I loved the seminar as a whole.

The course was great and covered a broad range of subject-matter. The subject-matter is very applicable for a new supervisor. It would have been great to go more in-depth on some areas, but I understand that with only 12 hours for the course that the depth of detail has to be limited. Otherwise, I think the only area that could use improvement are the group breakouts. I did not learn much as a result of these and how they were structured. Sometimes the instructions were unclear with the specifics on these, as well. All-in-all a great course though and I consider what I learned very applicable and valuable!

I would only recommend this seminar to someone with little to no prior detailed management/leadership, as it is VERY much just an overview. Having already taken two multiple-day AMA seminars and three half-day leadership courses, I found that I already had exposure to most of the content (there are two entire modules on SMART goals) or it wasn't detailed enough. I only found one or two modules really helpful, in particular the As I See Myself analysis. I still rate my experience as good because this item really helped me understand myself and others on my team and I will use it immediately.

Hello, I thought the seminar was very informative and made me see things from different perspectives. Laura's knowledge and energy made the seminar not only entertaining, but also worthwhile. I would definitely recommend the program to anyone making the same transition. Regards, Hugo Passarinho

THe content had the potential to be high quality, but although I liked the instructor and she was clearly and experienced trainer in general, she did not appear to be very familiar with the content for this class. She also did not have any supervisor experience, so she could not add the value of real life experiences. I realize it was a last minute switch from the normal teacher. I also would have prefered no political commentary on gun control and maternity leave. Laura was a good trainer, however. I also would have appreciated some basic snacks like fruit.

I truly enjoyed this course. Dr. H is an exceptional presenter, and I like how she was always engaged with the class rather than just reading from the book. I would definitely recommend this class to others.

This was a great seminar. I learned a lot of new information. All of the important concepts of supervising were addressed which included how to set goals, motivate people and give effective reviews. I will definitely use the information that I learned in this seminar. Thank you.

Excellent instructor and course content. My one frustration is that there was not enough time given to a few sections, especially on the second day, yet we were let go 30 minutes early each day. If my company is paying $1895 per person, I want the training to be complete and not be short-changed. We are there to learn.
