It can be awkward to ask your company to send you to a training program. Even if you know, and we know, that that program is the best management training in the world.

For some folks, you can just email and say, “Put in the corp card number, I’m off to management training.” But we understand that won’t work for everyone. Or for every workplace.

Without further ado, we humbly present this copy-paste offering for you to take and make your own, as you build a case for coming to a training program with Raw Signal Group:

Copy-paste this and make it your own—

Hi {budget-approving-human name}! I’ve been looking into a management and leadership development program called {program name} for a while and I’d like to register for the next one. {Program name} is a near-perfect match for the challenges facing our org this year and for me, specifically. It’s not some personality-test thing or a dry academic course. It’s designed to be deeply applicable and relevant for leaders in fast-paced orgs. Not only does the program emphasize skills development and tools for effective management. It also goes deep on how to make sure the work your team is doing is well-aligned to the rest of the org. And stays that way, quarter over quarter.

I’ve talked to the team at Raw Signal Group. The program is run by the co-founders there. They’re two former tech execs and it sounds like they totally get what we’re doing. They are not grad students with clipboards, nor part-time facilitators with a tackle box of dry-erase markers. Melissa and Johnathan Nightingale are seasoned operators, skilled executives, and world experts at getting smart, struggling bosses to grapple with how they lead. And if you want to know more about their approach, you can find it here.

All the details (including time commitment, dates, pricing) are here {LINK}. Their programs fill up fast so I wanted to get this in front of you sooner rather than later.

Let me know what you need in order to sign-off!
