Manager Development Program
Managers play a critical role in advancing the mission of the University.  They have significant responsibilities in formulating and administering policies and programs, as well as managing people and processes.  As Emory University endeavors to become the employer of choice, developing managers who are capable of shaping the future of the organization is essential.

Ideal Candidates:  Experienced managers, and individuals who have been hired or recently promoted to a management role (e.g., current managers, assistant/associate directors, or directors).  It is also ideal for those who have three or more years of experience in a management role but have not had formal management training.  The program is also appropriate for faculty and principal investigators that supervise people.

Front-line supervisors play a critical role in the daily operations of departments within the University.  Most supervisors have the responsibility of directing the work of others by hiring, developing, motivating and monitoring the performance of the staff.

Ideal Candidates: Individuals who are new to leadership or recently promoted to a role with supervisory responsibilities (e.g., new supervisors or managers or current associate directors, directors, supervisors, or team leaders).  Faculty members are eligible and encouraged to participate in the program.
