Re: Are you doing enough to prepare your Clinical Laboratory’s middle and upper managers?
As the management leader of your clinical laboratory organization, you recognize the value of competent managers at all levels— from bench supervisors and testing section managers to department heads and senior administrators.
You also know its time to nurture and develop the next generation of management leaders in your clinical laboratory. After all, very soon, your lab’s most experienced and longest-serving talent will begin retiring. The oldest baby-boomers turn 65 years old starting on January 1, 2011—just months away!
That’s why we’ve created this intensive, two-day workshop on laboratory management and leadership. It’s designed to give your most promising management talent proven tools, useful insights, and hands-on training in how to manage people and achieve organizational goals, on time and ahead of schedule!
You are urged to send your best and brightest management stars! Give them the strong grounding they need to advance their personal management career and make big contributions within your laboratory! This special training is the perfect solution for you and your always-improving team.
Best,
