Professional Training & Development
Driven by our goal of allowing all employees to achieve their full potential, we provide employees with access to training and development to help them become experts in their craft. Our award-winning safety training and video training support this effort. Garney employees are also encouraged to participate in professional service organizations and associations to learn from and with others in the construction industry. Additionally, we believe hands-on experience is the most effective way to learn position-specific skills. We support on-the-job learning with formal training and development programs and courses to round out our employees’ knowledge base.
Leadership Training & Development
At Garney, we’re dedicated to developing best-in-class leaders at all levels of our company. We’ve partnered with Stagen Leadership Academy to bring our employees opportunities to expand and grow their leadership skills through participation in the following programs:
- Foundational Leadership Course (FLC) – A 13-week course focused on introducing employees to fundamental leadership concepts.
- Integral Leadership Program (ILP) – A year-long program building on the concepts learned in the FLC and focused in four areas of leadership—leading self, leading others, leading the business, and leading change and transformation.
- Executive Presence Training – A year-long program aimed at developing leaders’ ability to presence themselves physically, mentally, and emotionally and inspire confidence with their employees.
