What do participants say about the co-development groups?
The aim of the project is to create a collaborative space where people in management or operations supervisory roles can share their challenges, exchange ideas and gain new perspectives, thereby finding solutions to the various issues they face.
For each meeting, participants benefit from two hours of training and one hour of co-development, as well as three hours of mentoring. The coaching and facilitation of the meetings has been entrusted to Andrée Tousignant of Agili-T Ressources humaines.
The themes of the six training sessions are as follows:
- The manager’s role in the employee experience
- Mobilizing through leadership
- Managerial courage
- Developing autonomy and the Art of delegating
- Taming up to flexibility at work
- Agile in times of change
Operations Management Co-development is made possible thanks to the financial participation of the Quebec government and the collaboration of Alliance Métal Québec.
