New Make-Up Manager Program Available
Published October 30, 2024
Salaried individual contributors at Newport News Shipbuilding who stand in as leaders during their manager’s absence now have resources available to support their success. Becoming a make-up manager is a great opportunity to develop the skills and gain experience for a future leadership role.
Having a make-up manager ready to step in for a manager in their absence helps maintain team performance. The Make-up Manager program provides a clear step-by-step process for the manager and the make-up manager to follow.
Participants begin the program with a short LX training, before reviewing the employee relations guide and tips one-pager. Managers complete the expectations guide and development plan and then meet with their make-up manager to discuss expectations, and review the learning and development plan.
