The Supervisory Leadership Training Partnership provided customized training specifically for the City of Olathe that illustrated innovative training techniques and evaluation methods. The program's focus was to apply the city's Vision, Values and Mission to the role of the Supervisor to help the City reach its full potential as an organization. Supervisors are leaders, and leaders create and maintain effective relationships to build productive teams. The importance of professional development and public service can hardly be overstated; the challenges are great, but so are the opportunities to make a real difference with employees.
