For 38 years now, Canscott has been providing supervisory/management training to clients across Canada and the USA. We have worked with thousands of supervisors and managers, with many of them progressing to senior executive roles in their own or other organizations. These senior leaders have then retained Canscott to deliver training in their new organizations. We want to thank our many clients for the opportunity to continue providing exceptional training for their leaders.
We also wish to inform everybody that 2023 is shaping up to be a very busy year for us and we are now beginning to confirm bookings for 2024. We have some summer and fall dates available for 2023 but time slots are filling quickly. Therefore, if you are contemplating delivering training this year or in 2024, please contact our Operations Manager, Bal Bains, as soon as possible to confirm dates.
With the holiday season just around the corner, consider giving your staff the gift of education with a Canscott training program. We are booking well into 2023, so don't wait too long and miss out on preferred dates and/or instructor.

Building trust-based communication with employees is of paramount importance for supervisors. Workplaces are becoming more and more diverse every day and supervisors must be aware that not everyone wants to be communicated with in the same manner. Supervisors need to be comfortable and confident when communicating with all members of their team.
Organizations everywhere are adopting coaching cultures and actively support positive reinforcement/ feedback systems. This may include having supervisors formally recognize team members’ achievements, sometimes in front of the team. However, not everyone may appreciate public recognition.
Accordingly, we suggest supervisors conduct preference discussions with employees, during on-boarding for new employees and additionally with their current team members. During these discussions, supervisors can introduce the reasons “why” they are having the discussion:
The intent of preference discussions is simply to provide a forum for supervisors and employees to improve mutual understanding. This will lead to better communication between employees and supervisors and hence improved productivity, safety, and job satisfaction.
For more information, please contact us. We are your partners in training and would love to work with you to improve the performance of your supervisors and managers.
We have been instructing this program since the early fall of 2021. Here are a few examples of the feedback we have received:
Clients have been piggy backing on one of our other programs to include this training in the same week they are hosting one of our training modules. On its own, or like as mentioned, this program is a fantastic way to create a standard, consistent approach to incident investigation in your workplace.
