Hi. I'm Amy Pearl.
Thank you for exploring our supervisory training options.
I've dedicated my life to helping leaders build the skills and behaviors to create high performing teams and motivating workplaces. I'd love to help your team, too!
I created the frameworks in Launch Into Leadership over 3 decades, first, as a corporate gal working for a big bank and then, by coaching hundreds of professionals, from CEO's of multi-billion dollar companies to high potentials just starting out. I've gained a reputation as a no-nonsense yet fun-loving coach who asks thought-provoking questions and delivers actionable ideas.
Whether you have one supervisor or fifty, let's help them get started or boost their skills today!

amazing organizations including:
Here are the answers to some questions you might have...
How many supervisors can participate at one time?
You can include as many supervisors as you'd like, since our sessions are virtual. We use lots of breakouts rooms and other ways to engage your learners, so large groups are fine with us.
If you have just one supervisor, choose the One-on-One Learning program for one participant above.
If you have 2 or 3 participants, we can create a hybrid option. Schedule a call with Amy to talk about your needs.
Who is the ideal participant for Launch Into Leadership?
The ideal participant is a new or emerging supervisor who wants to build self-awareness, communication skills, performance management techniques, and other basic frameworks for success. More experienced, mid-level or senior leaders who need to refine their leadership habits or prepare for the next level in their careers would likely benefit from our more extensive one-on-one coaching engagements or our Lead Ignited program.
How do I know the frameworks taught in Launch Into Leadership will stick?
Our goal is to achieve your goals. So, we begin by meeting with you to understand your objectives. We encourage participants to meet with their supervisors following our sessions to share what they've learned and identify ways to implement their new frameworks on the job. Participants' managers receive a Manager's Toolkit outlining each session and providing coaching questions to build accountability and sustainability of the participants' new skills.
How are the sessions structured?
For our one-on-one participants, we typically schedule our sessions every 2-3 weeks. In between, they complete our online learning modules. This ensures they can manage the learning load, build new skills, and get personalized attention to address their unique needs.
For our group program, we typically schedule the one-hour learning sessions every two weeks spanning a four month period. This gives the participants time to practice their new skills in between. To expedite the program, we can double-up on topics by offering two hour sessions. We'll work to meet your scheduling needs.
What is the cost?
At Work Ignited, we recognize that the fee for our services is your investment in anticipation of higher levels of performance and ultimately, greater financial return. So we strive to offer our high quality service at a fair value.
The fee for the one-on-one learning option is $1,497 including coaching time, access to the online learning modules for one year, and the Everything DiSC Profile.
Group programs are priced based on the number of participants and the structure of the sessions. Schedule a call with Amy to talk about options.
Let's launch your leaders to success!
The best time to help your leaders succeed is today.
So many new and emerging leaders started working in the work-from-home/hybrid workplace era. As a result, they haven't had the exposure to high performing leaders or the time to dedicate to building their own supervisory skills. Now, they are scrambling (or relying on you) to manage day-to-day tasks, build accountability, and grow their teams.
I truly believe that there's never been a better (or more important) time to double down on building supervisory skills. Today's workforce is looking for supervisors who are fair, firm, and friendly. Your super-doers can be turned into super-supervisors in just a short time. They just need proven frameworks and an intentional learning process to build the habits that will lead to their success.
I want your supervisors to feel proud of what they accomplish and confident in what thet can achieve.
Let's chat to get Launch Into Leadership scheduled for your supervisors.

10 Employee Appreciation Week Ideas
"Elmo is just checking in! How is everybody doing?"
That's the innocent question posted in Elmo's Twitter account a few days ago. Yes, our furry, red, Sesame Street friend has a very active social media presence.
The Tweet was all the buzz this weekend as thousands of comments poured in. Certainly some comments were fueled with gratitude, joy, and happiness. Sadly, many showcased sadness, frustration, and overwhelm:
"Not feeling tickled about life, Elmo."
"Elmo, I'm suffering from existential dread over here."
"Not gonne lie...I'm tired, Elmo. A lot's going on, little Red."
The simple question, "how are you doing?" yielded a profound understanding of the feelings Twitter users (aka, your employees) have about their jobs and their lives.
Elmo, being his typical emotionally intelligent self, responded with "Wow! Elmo is glad he asked! Elmo learned it is important to ask a friend how they are doing." Such an important lesson for all of us. When was the last time you asked your team, "how is everybody doing?"
When people responded with the common reply "fine," did you actually take the time to probe a little deeper...to go beyong the "fine" to discover how they were truly feeling?
Here's a Quick Tip
Create a scale for your team members to share how they're really doing. Ask the more specific question, "on a scale of 1 to 10, how are you doing today?" That creates two opportunities:
A specific number clarifies if "fine" really means "ecstatic," "mediocre," or "I'm in the dumps and barely holding it together!"
When you hear a number less than 9, you can proactively ask, "what would it take to move your response to a 9 or 10 and how can we make that happen today?!?!"
The lesson learned from Elmo is ask your friends how they feel. Listen to their responses and probe for more information. Then, take action to celebrate, support, or inspire them based on what they need in order to feel more than just "fine."
Employee Appreciate Week is February 26 - March 1
Employee Appreciation Day is Friday, March 1st and the week before gives you an opportunity to do some extra special things for your crew. Here are some ideas to get you thinking...
Amazon Wish List - Send an Amazon Gift Card and let them pick something that they truly want.
Let's Do Lunch - Schedule a team lunch or breafast in-person or virtually (or course, sending Door Dash gift cards to everyone). Use the time to acknowledge how much you value each person with a DIY awards ceremony.
Love Notes - Mail each team member a hand written note to express how much you truly appreciate them. Or, try Care Cards!
Team Outing - Schedule an adventure, field trip, or online experience for your team, with no agenda or lessons to be learned. Simply have fun together.
Care Packages - Send a mindset boost (candles, cookies, journals, flowers, snacks, lotions, potions, etc.) to each team member's home.
Family Fun - Give each team member a Visa gift card to put toward a night out with their families. Then, have team members post photos to a team board to share their fun.
Stanley Mugs - Okay, maybe everyone on your team already has one of these! How about a Lululemon Belt Bag, portable espresso machine, a cookbook based on their personal food interests, some company swag? Check out swag.com.
Superlatives - Remember the section of your yearbook recognizing students for being the best at something or the most likely to achieve something? Have your crew pick one superlative for each of their teammates: Best Team Player, Most Innovative Thinker, Most Dependable, Rising Star, Best Mentor, Most Customer-Focused, Most Positive Attitude, Most Adaptable, Most Outstanding Achievement, Most Likely to Become CEO, Best Problem Solver, Creative Genius Award, Best Tech Go-To Person, Excellence in Communication.
Give your team the day off!
Be like Elmo. Simply ask, "how are you doing?" Listen, probe, and respond.
