CLC Workforce Solutions announces leadership and management training – Brainerd Dispatch

BRAINERD — Central Lakes College Workforce Solutions announced the return of the workshop series, “Leadership and Management in the 22nd Century.”

The four-part series will kick off in January and is designed to empower participants with essential leadership and management skills, focusing on strategies to inspire and lead teams effectively.

“Leadership and Management in the 22nd Century” is a hands-on, cohort-style series. By combining theory with practical exercises, the series will enable attendees to build their leadership capacities, improve decision-making, and drive team performance in alignment with organizational goals.

The series is a partnership between Workforce Solutions and the North Central Small Business Development Center, which works to help small businesses start, grow, and succeed.

“In today’s rapidly evolving landscape, the demand for visionary leaders and adept managers has never been greater,” said Katie Heppner, regional director of the North Central Small Business Development Center, in a news release. “Whether you are a seasoned manager, an emerging leader, or someone aspiring to make a meaningful impact, this series will provide the tools and inspiration to help you elevate your leadership skills and enhance your management style.”

“Leadership and Management for the 22nd Century” will be a practical and productive learning experience. During the series, each participant will complete a CliftonStrengths for Leaders assessment; a diversity, equity, and inclusion assessment; a leadership development plan; an employee engagement plan; and a change road map.

Our newsroom occasionally reports stories under a byline of “staff.” Often, the “staff” byline is used when rewriting basic news briefs that originate from official sources, such as a city press release about a road closure, and which require little or no reporting. At times, this byline is used when a news story includes numerous authors or when the story is formed by aggregating previously reported news from various sources. If outside sources are used, it is noted within the story.

Hi, I’m the Brainerd Dispatch. I started working a few days before Christmas in 1881 and became a daily paper two years later. I’ve gone through a lot of changes over the years, but what has never changed is my commitment to community and to local journalism. I’ve got an entire team of dedicated people who work night and day to make sure I go out every morning, whether in print, as an e-edition, via an app or with additional information at www.brainerddispatch.com. News, weather, sports — videos, photos, podcasts and social media — all covering stories from central Minnesota about your neighbors, your lakes, your communities, your challenges and your opportunities. It’s all part of the effort to keep people connected and informed. And we couldn’t do it without support.
