Manager Essentials is a cross-company learning experience for new managers. Throughout this facilitator-led track of training sessions, managers will connect with other managers, learn from shared experiences, and apply frameworks and tools immediately.
Managers connect through guided discussion groups and dedicated networking events to form an immediate, lasting support system.
Manager Essentials takes new managers from inexperienced to effective leaders—solving the #1 problem cited by talent leaders.
On top of attending interactive Campfire sessions, enrolled managers will gain access to an exclusive resource library and other special events.

Manager Essentials isn’t your average training. With a skills asessment to identify areas of development, facilitator-led Campfire sessions with peers, and dedicated connection opportunities, it’s the ultimate new-manager training experience.
The content that makes up our Campfire sessions is the result of hours of research, decades of cumulative experience, and hundreds of conversations, and is organized to give managers the support they need to be successful from day one.
Manager Essentials sessions are intentionally small in size (10-15 managers), giving managers plenty of opportunities to connect and create a peer support system that lasts long after the Campfires are over.
Each of our certified guides is an expert in encouraging connection between participants, creating space for meaningful discussion and personal reflection that leads to action.
After you've completed the Manager Essentials track, you'll continue to have access to Campfire through your ongoing subscription. That means you'll be able to register for our complete catalog of sessions, attend peer coaching sessions, and access our content library.
We designed Manager Essentials for those managers who have previously received little or no formal management training. For the most part, we expect that to mean managers who are new to their role, but it also includes those with more time in their positions who never received formal training, or who are interested in strengthening their foundational leadership skills.
Sure thing! In fact, we recommend it. Head on over to our pricing page to see all the details about our subscription plans.
Definitely! The Manager Essentials content was specifically designed for managers with little to no prior training. For more tenured managers, we suggest reviewing the complete course syllabus to gauge for yourself if you will find it relevant and useful (hint: we think you will).
The Manager Essentials track is included with any Campfire subscription. Once you sign up for a subscription (details can be found on our pricing page), you'll be able to register for Manager Essentials training sessions individually after onboarding.
We host sessions regularly at times designed to fit the busy schedule of a manager. Once you've onboarded to the Campfire app, you'll be able to see the complete schedule of upcoming sessions.
