<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am passing along this <i>Right to Be</i> leadership training. This learning opportunity does have a cost, but I am also including a reminder at the bottom of this email about the OLA EDI & Antiracism Professional Development scholarships

<p class="MsoNormal">Why This TRAINING, Why Now?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Effective managers drive employee engagement, retention, and productivity. In fact, 76% of employees say they work harder for an effective manager.</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Yet most managers are overwhelmed and underprepared. Gartner reports that 75% experience daily overwhelm. Fewer than half feel confident they have the skills to lead effectively. And 50% report burnout.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The issue isn’t commitment. It’s support.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Too many people leaders are promoted without the training they need to navigate conflict, support team well-being, and build inclusive, high-performing workplace cultures. The result? Turnover, disengagement, and strained teams.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">At Right To Be, we believe leadership is a skill set that can be built. This small-cohort training allows for deeper, more relevant applications of the learning as it is paced week by week. It will equip managers with practical tools to
strengthen team dynamics, improve retention, foster psychological safety, and create workplaces where everyone feels valued and supported.<o:p></o:p></p>
