These monthly sessions are meant to provide information, support, and resources specific to the challenges and issues managers encounter. The sessions will be provided in a Teams Meeting format allowing for presentation, questions, and discussion. ESP would like to offer managers the opportunity to gain knowledge and information not only from the formal material presentation, but from the wisdom and experiences of fellow managers.
If you would like to attend one or more of the sessions, please send us an email at MCSC-ESP@michigan.gov. and we will send you the Teams Meeting invite.
Creating Healthy Habits for You and Your Team – Tuesday, March 21: 12:00 – 1:00 p.m.

Handling Change: Coping with the Stress of Change and Uncertainty for Managers – Tuesday, May 16: 12:00 – 1:00 p.m.
Change is a natural part of work, just as it is a natural part of life. However, change and the unknowns of change can sometimes bring on worry and a sense of discomfort. Experiencing change with optimism and openness is the ultimate goal but sometimes difficult to achieve. This presentation for managers will touch on many points related to handling change and uncertainty and highlight strategies for effectively managing others during these times.
