7:00am-9:15am  “Ten Keys To Success In Management”:  Directors and Managers frequently make the same mistakes that keep them from reaching their highest potential.  Bradley has successfully consulted across the nation with directors for over a decade.  In addition to this he literally trains thousands of early education directors, owners and managers every year.  Based on this experience he has narrowed the common mistakes to 10 key areas.  Find the 10 keys to success from a consultant who knows the common pitfalls.

9:15am11:00am “Identifying Growth Tipping Points”:    Bradley has been a consultant and trainer for over a decade and has identified the growth tipping points in early education centers.  Participants will be exposed to the general growth tipping points and team strategies to allow them to power through them.  Frequently organizations get stagnated in their growth and find themselves going back and forth in an endless cycle.  This class will show that it is often not about economic conditions or even cyclical patterns, but is about understanding what it takes to go to the next level.

11:00am-12:00pm " Question and Answer Session": One of the past participants favorite things about the training cruise environment is having such proximity access to the presenters.  The first day will be structured to give ample time for each participant to ask questions directly to Bradley and the NICCM team concerning issues that are near and dear to their individual programs.  Come prepared with your issues and topics that you would like to discuss.

 1.13.15 Tuesday: Sea Day 2

7:00am-9:00am   “Employees Have Personality Too": One of the challenges an administrator faces is in getting employees to work together in unity and harmony. This humor-filled session will relate the 4 basic personality types to interpersonal relationships including those within the center. A good manager will understand that “employees have personality too” and that it will affect the way they react and respond to others and their responsibility. An effective administrator will not only use this knowledge to pull the right people around them in an administrative environment but also in giving out assignments and in methods used to manage people and their talents.
