Does This
Sound Familiar?
You have great employees who you’ve moved into manager roles so they can teach others. But great managers don't just “happen.” They need knowledge, skills, and tools to lead effectively.
While you'd love to provide training yourself, your plate is already overflowing, just like the plates of your managers who need to learn exactly what to do in the situations they face.
When managers haven’t gotten practical, engaging training, they might respond to employee issues with silence or, worse, the wrong approach, leading to disengagement and inefficiencies.
But what’s the solution?
High-quality management training is hard to find and expensive to develop internally.
You and your managers deserve a comprehensive, cost-effective management training solution that sticks. A one-of-a-kind package that gives your managers the confidence to handle a wide range of leadership, communication, and people situations themselves.
Why? So you and your managers can get results and boost organizational culture. Imagine the time you’d have, to focus on strategic initiatives and proactive needs. This is what we provide - a package of self-paced manager training, plus tools for you to run internal follow-up cohort sessions to make sure the learning comes to life.
Let’s Discuss Your NeedsHi!
I'm Ashley.
As an experienced lawyer and HR leader, I’ve seen great managers fail without proper training. But I’ve also seen them succeed (and have powerful ripple effects for their teams) when they’ve received the training they need, including practicing it so they’re ready when situations arise.
You might know me from TikTok or Instagram (@managermethod) or as a LinkedIn Learning instructor, where I share engaging, bite-sized advice on management situations.
So far, my content has been viewed and shared by millions, and my LinkedIn Learning courses on people management are top-rated due to their practical, actionable tips.

Manager 101
Manager 101 provides a rock-solid foundation for managers. It's not just informative; it's also engaging and relevant. The self-paced modules accommodate even the busiest of schedules, and its straightforward language, devoid of legalese, ensures that managers at all levels, whether new or seasoned, can readily apply what they've learned. When colleagues, whether new managers in Romania or seasoned professionals seeking a refresher, seek my advice on managerial skills, my go-to recommendation is Manager Method.

I did not have a single question left unanswered and this course anticipated others!! The Resource Guide is invaluable and Manager Method® even provides talking points that we can use when practicing some situational challenges. This was by far one of the best training experiences that I have had and I do not get impressed easily at this stage in my acreer. Really: BRAVO!! If you are reading this and wondering whether you will get much out of it, buckle up: you will get a whole lot more!

I cannot thank you enough for such an informative and insightful talk yesterday. Your wisdom shines through in your advice, and everyone on the board really appreciated your thoughts on being an effective and empathetic manager.
