Today, that persistence and innovation has transformed Carleton Life Support into a world-class operation that is on the forefront of superior new technology and continued market leadership.

Carleton Employees Get a Head Start on Leadership

A total of 57 Carleton Life Support Systems employees completed an innovative training program in June and
November of this year that will enhance their leadership capabilities throughout the plant, the community and in their home lives.

The Dale Carnegie Leadership Training for Managers program was presented at CLSS, where employees from the plant and from other companies participated.

The program emphasizes common sense principles that are often forgotten in the hectic business world. Managers and non managers participated in this program while learning how to integrate people and processes, the five drivers of success, the innovation process, communication, listening skills, delegation, accountability, planning, follow up processes, coaching, recognition, human relations principles and self development.

Congratulations to those who put forth the time and effort required in striving to become better at the things that you do! “Flaming enthusiasm, backed up by horse sense and persistence, is the quality that most frequently makes for Success.” - Dale Carnegie
