WHAT     "Meeting the Challenges of the Middle Manager" full-day workshop from the Florida Institute of Government. The seminar addresses the skills needed to be successful in the multitasking role of middle manager. The course teaches ability alone is not sufficient for success.

Middle managers understand the needs of front line workers and bring important issues to the attention of top managers. Middle managers plan, initiate and implement programs, and they motivate and direct employees while always balancing the fine line between the two. Ava Fluty is instructor.
