Module 1: Effective Team Leadership
Date: Tuesday 11th March, 9:00am – 1:00pm
This module is ideal for managers who have never had any formal management training or updated management theory for those who have.
Leadership v Management – helping managers understand the differences between leading and managing and understanding their own management style and importance of purpose at work
Skills and techniques – a suite of different tools and techniques that will help lead high performing teams that can be put into practice when back in the work place
Delegation – why it is beneficial and how to delegate effectively
Motivating your Team – exploring how to motivate your team effectively
Team Development – using a classic management theory, identifying the key stages of team development and to be aware of and manage in practice.
Module 2: Managing Conflict and Difficult Conversations
Date: Thursday 13th March, 9:00am – 1:00pm
This module helps managers to know how to get the best out of their team and provides skills to manage conflict, have a difficult conversation and confidence to say ‘no’.
Building Trust – within the team and creating the right culture
Managing Conflict – a practical tour of managing conflict at work
Difficult Conversations – how to go about preparing for having that difficult conversation, something that so often people and managers avoid.
Saying no – there are ways of saying no; often people can’t. We will teach you how to say no ‘nicely’ when you are in those difficult situations.
Module 3: Managing Teams through Change
Date: Wednesday 19th March, 9:00am – 1:00pm
This module is designed to give managers the skills to improve how to communicate and manage others through constantly changing times, recognising the importance of empathy and emotional intelligence as a leader.
Emotional Intelligence – awareness of what emotional intelligence is, identifying own emotional intelligence through a questionnaire and why it is of growing importance for managers, especially empathy and a need for a more ‘considerate’ management approach.
Changing Workplace – recognising the world of work is changing; more technology, an ageing workforce with different expectations from employees and complexity to manage
Impact of change – many employees fear or resist change. Understanding the ‘change curve’ and how as a manager you can support employees through different stages of change, will help to better support your team and be a more effective manager.
