The TWI Job Relations 1-hour webinar
The TWI Job Relations (JR) webinar is for those who are curious about why Job Relations is such an effective leadership development program.
If these questions resonate with you, then the webinar is something for you.
– Why do people not cooperate with me?
– Why do people resist our safety equipment and/or quality standards?
– Why do people have a hard time accepting changes?
– Why do people resign or resign and stay?
During the webinar, we will introduce the why and the thinking behind the Job Relations program, its core elements, and how to apply it to your daily work as a leader. We will also share real-life examples from our deliveries around the world.
