Finally, the Same Supervisor Leadership Training that the Big Companies Use
Self-paced leadership training in 7 modules with 5 lessons each – built for small company industrial supervisors
Build trust and teamwork.
Communicate with confidence.
Get employee buy-in to safety.
You Promoted Your Best Technical People, But Nobody Taught Them How to Lead
You know your people by name. You care about your local community. You can pivot quickly when someone has a great idea. You treat your team like family, not employee numbers.
Small companies like yours should be winning the talent war.
But somehow you keep losing employees to competitors, and you can’t figure out why. Meanwhile, big companies are investing thousands per supervisor in leadership development.
Your supervisors are learning through trial and error while their competitors get real training.
Some of your good people may have already left for competitors where supervisors actually know how to connect with them. The difference isn’t technical skills – it’s the people skills your supervisors never learned.

The Essential Leadership Foundation Supervisors Need
Module 1: Know Your Role
Your supervisors discover the seven skills employees actually want from them (technical skills rank dead last) and learn why being a “gunslinger” who handles everything alone destroys team cohesiveness.
Module 2: Become Premium-Brand
Your supervisors understand they already have a brand – the question is whether employees see them as “budget-brand” or “premium-brand” and learn what makes the difference.
Module 3: Focus Down, Not Up
Your supervisors stop trying to impress you and start focusing on their team, learning why people don’t leave jobs – they leave supervisors.
Module 4: Create Elite Teams
Your supervisors learn what separates elite teams from ordinary ones: certainty and trust, and get tools for setting standards and building mission focus.
Module 5: Selling the Safety Brand
Your supervisors learn how to get genuine buy-in to safety instead of just compliance by getting permission to help people be better.
Module 6: Motivating Your Team
Your supervisors learn what really motivates people (hint: it’s not money) and discover the six things more important to employees than pay.
Module 7: The Supervisor As Coach
Your supervisors learn how to replace chasing people with coaching and mentoring, discovering why consistency builds trust and conversations matter more than commands.

What Supervisors Are Saying
Our company has been working with the PeopleWork programs for three years, and we have committed to two more. A testament to how much of a difference these programs have made for our people and culture.
Other outfits may teach frontline leadership skills, but none would have the message, the steps, the method of delivery, the professionalism, and charisma. This is the whole package.
When Your Supervisors Finally Know How to Lead People
Picture walking through your operation and feeling the energy. Your supervisors inspire instead of just manage. Employees light up when their supervisor approaches, not tense up.
Your best people bring their friends to work here. They tell others, “You’ve got to meet my supervisor. This is what a real leader looks like.”
You sleep better knowing your operation runs on trust, not fear. Your supervisors have become the leaders you always hoped they could be.
This isn’t just a better operation – it’s the workplace you’re proud to have built.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this change our family-style culture?
Just the opposite. This training helps supervisors become better at building the genuine relationships and close-knit teams that make small companies special.
Q: Do my supervisors really need formal training? They seem to be doing fine.
Your supervisors directly impact every aspect of your operation – team culture, safety performance, productivity, communication, and employee retention. Even good supervisors can become great with the right people skills. The difference between a supervisor who naturally connects with people and one who has been trained shows up in team cohesion, safety buy-in, problem-solving effectiveness, and whether your best people want to stay and grow with you.
Q: What are the Office Hours and how do they work?
Kevin Burns hosts live Office Hours every Wednesday and Thursday from 1-2PM Eastern. Your supervisors can join these sessions to ask questions, get guidance on specific situations, and receive ongoing coaching support as they apply what they’re learning.
Q: What if my supervisors resist training or think they don’t need it?
Frame it as giving them tools to become even better at what they already care about – connecting with their people. That you want them to gain the skills to not just manage their teams but lead them. That you want them to be able to ascend upward in this company one day and they are going to need more leadership skills. Most supervisors want to succeed with their teams; they just need to know how.
Give Your Supevisors the Skills to Create This Future
That workplace you just envisioned isn’t just possible – it’s what happens when supervisors have the right people skills. Your employees are waiting for leaders who know how to value them, inspire them, and help them grow.
Don’t let this opportunity pass. Give your supervisors the core essentials they need to become the leaders your operation deserves.
