Good Managers : Most managers when they hire on reservations, are thinking to themselves, "I hope this person works out so I won't have to be advertising, interviewing and training people all over again." Yet, it happens all the time. High turnover rates are a problem throughout Indian Country. This course teaches management theory, reservation style, from Sitting Bull through Peter Drucker. Your employees don't get together secretly and plot to drive you crazy (really!) This course will give you a better understanding of why people behave the way they do and how everyone in your organization can change to better meet your goals. Change doesn't have to be painful (really!)

Successful Employees:
No one starts a job intending to be a failure. So, how does it happen that so many employees in Indian Country either quit their jobs or are fired? Our purpose is to see that your employees are not fired but are instead retained and promoted as they demonstrate their ability to be successful workers. Successful employees understand workplace culture, job skills, self-analysis and self responsibility. Whether you want to get a job, succeed in the job you have or move up into management, this training is for you. It is the next best thing to being able to read your boss's mind (really!) Managers love employees who take this course because they have better attendance records, better job performance records and better interaction with co-workers.

Growing Businesses: If at all possible, please take this course before you start your business. Many people who think they want to own a business give up the idea once they understand the work, the risks and the challenges involved. This course will give everyone a better insight into why one business grows while another dies. For those who do decide to go ahead and for those who don't, this course will save you time, money and heartbreak. The owners of Spirit Lake Consulting, Inc. started a business with a handshake in the Tribal Administration Building. Twenty-two months later, we hit $1,000,000 in signed contracts. We will share the joys, exhaustion, excitement and details of growing a business.
