As a first-time manager, I found the course extremely helpful in learning the basics that a leader should be looking to define for their team for goals, metrics, etc. I do not think I would have been as successful in building out a productive team without this course. I would absolutely recommend this course to anyone looking to build their skills as a manager, especially with the focus on MSP-specific content.

"I feel I have more control"

Scott B.

This course presents specific methods for managing a service team, with a very consistent philosophy of simplicity and accountability that really resonated with me. I've already implemented several internal and client-facing processes that were either directly layed out by the course or inspired by the course. I feel that I have more control. Our team is happier, communicates more and is more effective thanks to a few hours spent on this wonderful course. I personally feel like I've made a significant step forward in personal and career growth.
