Midwest Academy to host Supervising Organizers Workshop in Berkeley

The Midwest Academy's next Supervising Organizers Workshop is coming up July 11 - 13th in Berkeley. Spend three days with Midwest Academy Trainers developing your supervisory skills to build strong organizations, win concrete issues, and cultivate the next generation of our movements. You'll leave with a concrete plan that meets the needs of your organization and the organizers that you supervise.

Through a combination of presentations, discussions, and practical exercises the workshop covers the following areas: 

  • Understanding organizational models and the need to be clear with your staff about what they are building 
  • Using the Midwest Academy strategy chart as an ongoing method of setting organizers' priorities and monitoring progress  
  • Motivating, mentoring, and nurturing organizers who are at different stages in their careers 
  • Developing techniques for long distance supervision    
  • Learning the nitty-gritty supervisory skills such as hiring, orienting and training, troubleshooting and discipline, and evaluations  
Our next session is coming up in Berkeley from July 11 - 13th. Check out all the details and register today!
