Course Detail: CPWE - Creating a Positive Work Environment

Join us for a 3-hour training session with TrainND Northeast's Soft Skills Trainer Kyle Ternes to learn ways you as an employee or leader in your organization can help create and foster a positive work environment!

**Please Note: There has been a date change for our session in Devils Lake. Class has moved from October 15th to October 24th. Time will remain the same. We apologize for any inconvenience.**

Not all of us have had the opportunity to work in a truly positive work environment. A positive work environment is important for the productivity of a company but is also important to us personally. Our emotional and physical health can be improved by working in a positive work environment. We should wake up each morning wanting to go to work - not trying to think of excuses not to go. We want to be proud of where we work and enjoy telling others about where we work. As an employee or a leader within a company you have a responsibility to create and maintain a positive work environment. No matter your role within the organization, this course will give you tools to start creating the company environment you crave through building and nurturing effective workplace relationships.
