STP 2015 Edition, Unit 1

Leadership and Motivation

AGC's Supervisory Training Program (STP) is a construction-specific training curriculum developed, updated, and field-tested by and for contractors. Each day, decisions made in the field are crucial to the success or failure of every construction project. Individuals attending STP courses include anyone on a construction jobsite in a supervisory role - from the new supervisor or foreman to the experienced superintendent who is looking to become a more effective manager of people, time, equipment and materials. This course teaches the value of effective supervision of workers and improves the construction supervisor's ability to lead and motivate others by exploring the role of the construction supervisor to motivate, lead and help the team perform better. Participants learn how to give positive feedback, how to put their leadership skills in action, and how to create an effective project team.
