Effectively Managing People & Teams

About the Course

This intensive team management training program is designed to provide individuals with the skills and techniques necessary in their transition to a management role.

The adjustment from being managed to ‘being the manager’ is the biggest challenge in today’s demanding business environment. With the diverse mix of generations in the workforce, the ability to bring people together, maintain motivation, address performance and deliver results is a challenge that cannot be underestimated.

Our people management courses can help you learn how to create, empower and lead a cohesive team to achieve results through delegation, coaching, effective prioritisation and able decision-making.

You’ll learn how best to approach each individual in your team – and how to juggle the multiple demands on you as a manager, whilst maintaining the focus on the efforts of both you and your team.

Develop a greater level of personal effectiveness in the performance of your management role through a better understanding of your personal communication style and how to influence others to achieve desired outcomes.

Become more confident in confronting difficult people and situations and learn to resolve problems quickly whilst building sustainable and beneficial relationships with both internal and external stakeholders.

Armed with a portfolio of management techniques, you will return to your workplace well-equipped to build on your strengths as a manager, and to identify areas where you can improve both your efficiency and your working relationships.
