The management landscape is littered with HR-related traps for unwary new supervisors or managers, and the stakes are too high to let them “learn by doing.” Here’s a tool to train them with minimal effort on your part and theirs.
Last issue we talked about supervisors and managers who tried to be good supervisors, but their good intentions backfired. And instead, they laid the groundwork for expensive lawsuits. And we said that the solution is training, training, and more training—which, of course, you’re doing.
What’s that? You’re not doing thorough HR training? OK, let’s hear the excuses:
We don’t have a budget for training.
We don’t have the time—we’ve got quotas to meet around here.
I’m no trainer—so who’s going to do it?
I don’t have the time or the expertise to put together all that training.
To which we quote that currently popular phrase from the Sopranos School of Management , “Fogeddahboudit.” Because there is a training solution that has helped thousands of HR managers deliver top-quality training to their line supervisor and manager colleagues. Even better, it doesn’t cost an arm and a leg and you won’t lose a beat in productivity.

When we set out to develop the 10-Minute HR Trainer, we first had our lawyers identify the most critical training topics. Then our editors and trainers skillfully split those major topics into discrete, manageable chunks and created a training package on each for you to present—right out of the box, complete with reproducible handouts, in as little as 10 minutes!
You Can Do It, We Can Help.
The 10-Minute HR Trainer offers these features:
–Trains in 50 key HR topics, including manager and supervisor responsibilities, under all the major employment laws, and explains how to legally carry out managerial actions from hiring to termination. For a complete list of topics covered, click here.
–Uses the same teaching sequence master teachers use. Every lesson includes an overview, bullet-points on key concepts, an immediate quiz to test understanding, and a handout to reinforce the learning later.
–Completely prewritten and self-contained. Each unit is provided as a set of reproducibles. Just make copies or turn them into overheads, and you’re done. No research, writing, or other preparation needed. To see a sample lesson, click here.
–Updated continually. As laws and practices change, your training needs to, as well. The 10-Minute HR Trainer program provides new lessons and updated information every 90 days, along with a monthly Training Forum newsletter.
