Supervisor Development, Overseas Workshops to Develop Supervisory Skills

The Una Chapman Cox Foundation and the Foreign Service Institute held two pilot workshop sessions designed to train and support Foreign Service Officers who would serve as first- time supervisors of direct-hire American employees. Attendees were heads of section or a unit, new to the supervision of US direct hire employees, from posts in Europe, Africa and Latin America. They included Foreign Service generalists and specialists. The workshops were extremely well received by the 47 participants."
