About this ZingTrain Seminar

At Zingerman’s, we shake up the old approaches with wackily sound ways to manage an organization. We share concepts like Servant Leadership (where the bosses serve the staff); the power of Visioning (where you actually figure out what you want your organization to look like before you write the strategic plan); Bottom-Line Change® (our very workable recipe for organizational change that gets people at every level of the company helping to make change happen); and Stewardship (questioning the traditional relationship between power and authority).

Visioning helps a ton!

It keeps us focused clearly on where we’re going — even if we make short-term strategic adjustments to account for what’s going on around the world, our vision for 2020 doesn’t change.  And similarly our guiding principles keep us anchored by talking about how we’re going to work together and with the world around us while we’re doing this.

These tools and techniques all focus on ways to build more effective, lasting and rewarding relationships with staff, peers, bosses, customers and community. Everyone can use these tools: people who are brand new to management as well as people with 40 years of experience.

It’s a much cooler way to run a company – and have fun in the process.

During this seminar, participants will:

• Learn new skills and knowledge that can improve their bottom-line performance as a manager.
• Explore the management philosophy that has been successful at Zingerman’s.
• Practice using new skills and concepts in a safe environment.
• Develop a network of peers who face similar challenges.
