What People Leaders Say About MEA Training
"As a young female professional preparing to enter the next chapter of my career, I was eager to attend the MEA Foundational Manager Series. Since completing the course, I find I am well equipped with the knowledge and tools I need to be an effective manager and leader for my company. Working through the series with my cohort was an additional bonus to the traditional learning model. We were able to gain a deeper understanding of the topics presented through each other’s experiences and perspectives as we worked collaboratively through the many interactive problem-solving sessions. This is a great course to take if you are new to managing others, or if you have many years’ experience!”
