Student staff retention is an important part of managing a successful program. However, many Coordinators oversee multiple programs and many student employees with limited resources. This workshop will explore how supervisors can utilize various tools and techniques in order to manage time efficiently, while providing an enriching employment experience.
This workshop will begin with participants sharing challenges they encounter while managing a large staff or multiple programs. The presenter will discuss the importance of staff retention, introduce the framework of synergistic supervision, and identify five common challenges faced by LAC supervisors.
Participants will break out into five groups to collect and present their own strategies and innovations that help them address each challenge, and the presenter will introduce additional approaches and tools that have proven to be effective. Strategies and tools will be collected and posted in the “Toolbox,” located on an accessible Google Site.
