I am back home from Los Angelas where I had the privilidge of attending ManagerTools.com’s Effective Manager Conference. Simple put it was amazing. Having been listening to Manager Tool’s podcasts for probably about a year. Having been acting upon the content since December when I took on the Interim Team Lead role, it was great to hear the Trilogy straight from them in person. Their Trinity for management is quite simple: One-on-ones, Feedback, Coaching, and Delegation.
Lately I have been feeling like something has not been working with the way I have been actioning on the Trinity, and I learned many areas where I can improve. Feedback was the next step that I really needed clarity on how to do it, and I got exactly what I needed plus more from the conference. I will undoubtedly be able to be more effective moving forward, and I am exctatic about it. I have been able to attend many confernces with my job, but none have been as actionable and beneficial as the Effective Manager Conference.
