A free online event to help you create a unified forensic team with less conflict and more productive conversations
You’re getting a lot of things right! You’re talking to your team, being a listening ear and attempting to address conflict as is arises.
But… you know you could be doing more to improve your communication skills, reduce team drama and get your team what they need!
Instead of being frustrated that your intentions have been misinterpreted once again
Instead of letting the those fires continue to burn under the surface
Without having to fake it ’til you make it
Instead of begging for your team’s needs and always getting “no” for an answer
So you can change the trajectory of your career
25+ experts over 4 days will teach you strategies you can use to improve your communication skills as a Forensic Supervisor, no matter how new or seasoned you are. All from wherever you are most comfortable logging in!
Feeling misunderstood because no matter how you try to express yourself, your team doesn’t seem to understand you or follow your lead.
Feeling frustrated because you can’t gain the support you need from your chain of command to make change in your unit.
Feeling stressed because drama and conflict continue to exist on your team no matter how much you try to resolve it.
Hi! I’m Ashley and I’m Erin and we are Gap Science! We are Forensic professionals with a passion for providing resources to Forensic leaders just like you!
Our company offers in-person trainings and eCourses to support the development of leadership skills for our fellow Forensic practitioners. We have experienced the struggle of getting tossed in as a new supervisor with no support and no guidance. And playing the game of sink or swim shouldn’t be how you learn to be a supervisor.
So regardless of what type of Forensic Unit you supervise, we have created this summit to help you get what you need to become more effective and confident as a supervisor.
The Forensic Supervisor Success Summit will run from September 18-21, 2023 with a variety of presentations to choose from each day.
We don’t know about you, but we prefer to wear pajama pants as much as possible. With that being said, put on yours and tune into the summit from the comfort of your couch.
Most presentations will be ~20 minutes in length. Nice and short so you can get the information you need and take action quickly! The presentations will only be available for 24-hours to encourage you to stop waiting for the right time and take action now alongside hundreds of other supervisors.
You’ll also have access to a private Facebook group for the summit where we’ll be partying it up before the summit starts and working together to start thriving once it kicks off.
As an attendee, you’ll have the chance to win prizes based on engagement, BINGO, and giveaways. In fact, entries are being awarded right now in the Facebook group. Come on in and join the fun!
After registering, you can also upgrade to gain access to the Forensic Supervisor Success Kit. That means you’ll get lifetime access to presentations and worksheets, premium bonuses from our speakers, and 3 live co-working sessions. You won’t want to miss it!
There are a lot of leadership summits, trainings, and workshops out there. So what makes this one different?
First, this is the only summit that is focused specifically on helping Forensic supervisors run their units. You won’t find general advice for just any supervisor here. Every presentation is specialized for the types of units you run, making it super practical and easy to implement right away. If you currently supervise Forensic professionals or want to someday- we’ve got you!
More importantly, we aren’t here to add to your already full plate. Our goal is to help you come up with an actionable plan that will help you improve your communication skills and apply them, all while feeling less stressed, more confident and more effective as a supervisor.
Now for the details you’ve been waiting for.
