Workforce Management
Managing and motivating the workforce requires court leaders to not only understand the laws, legal rulings, and policies that guide the courts’ operations but also to be skilled in a number of specific human resource tasks.

Leadership is an energetic process of creating vision resulting in commitment to a common course and preferred future. Just as there is no one best way to manage courts, there is no best way to be a court leader. Leadership is highly personal – some people are naturally better able than others although everyone can learn good leadership techniques.
A court leader needs to be able to manage court operations with consistency and predictability, by providing the guidance and policies for both day-to-day operations and long-term decisions. To do this, the court leader will need to develop and maintain an effective governance structure for the court.
