     Getting the Job Done...Trouble Shooting...Problem               
Solving...Talking it Out. Effectively managing relationships with    
colleagues, subordinates and supervisors can increase everyone's     
ability to do the best job possible with the most complete           
information. An understanding of the elements of successful collegial
relationships can help us apply the principles to relationships that 
have not been as successful. Participants will explore their own     
networking relationships through practice exercises and development  
planning.
