The knowledge and experience Mark shared really opened my eyes on a number of options and improvements our department can implement to be more effective and shined a light on the number of best practices we could implement.
3-Day Public Seminar
Supervising
Maintenance
Were you handed a supervisor title without the leadership skills that are supposed to come with it? Our 3-day seminar equips you with the core skills to lead a maintenance team with confidence, from understanding the true value of your role through leadership practices, supervisor tools, and a personal development plan you build for yourself.
Sound Familiar?
You're Running Hard.
But the Work Never Catches Up.
Most maintenance planners and schedulers aren't failing because they lack effort. They're failing because nobody ever taught them a system. This seminar gives you that system.
1
Promoted without a playbook. You were a great technician, so you got the supervisor title. But nobody handed you the leadership skills that come with it.
2
Pulled in every direction. Your team needs answers, management needs results, and the plant needs uptime. Everyone’s depending on you and the day’s gone before you’ve led anything.
3
Managing tasks instead of leading people. You’re clearing the work order queue but you’re not building a team that performs without you standing over it.
4
Reacting, never developing. There’s no time to coach, mentor, or plan when you’re putting out fires from the moment you walk in.
5
Unsure of your own value. You know the work matters, but you can’t always articulate how your role drives team efficiency and plant capacity, and neither can the people above you.
6
No plan for your own growth. You’re focused on everyone else’s performance. Nobody’s helping you build the path for where you go next.
What You'll Learn
Three Days, Built Around the Work
As a maintenance supervisor, you’re often handed the title without the playbook, pulled between your team, management, and plant uptime with no time left to actually lead. With the right skills and tools you can step into the role with confidence and bring out the best in your team.
Each day blends instruction, group exercises drawn from real plants, and worked examples you can take home. By the end of day three you’ll leave with a personal development plan you build for your own growth as a leader.
Day 1
Foundations & Value
Understand Total Process Reliability as the solution to common maintenance issues, and recognize the value your supervisor role brings to management, your team, and plant capacity.
Day 2
Responsibilities & Leadership
Define your supervisor responsibilities and character traits, then learn the leadership practices that drive consistent team performance.
Day 3
Tools & Development
Select the supervisory tools that fit your operation, and build a personal development plan you’ll take back to the plant.
From Our Attendees
Real supervisors. Real results.
I have a clear path on my roles and responsibilities of a planner/scheduler. I have a clear path on how to move forward and make a difference in my company.
So many amazing takeaways, but the biggest would have to be to always continue to learn, always do your best in the role your assigned, and implement the strategies to better improve the organization.
I came in skeptical. I left with a backlog reduction plan I actually used the following week.
Best training investment our department has made in five years. The supervisor alignment piece alone was worth it.
