Just because an employee is good at their job, does not mean they’ll automatically be a good manager.
That’s right, employees are often promoted based on their technical competence, but they lack the power skills that will make them confident managers. This transition is made even more complicated with the emergence of the new hybrid workplace.
New managers need to:
- ✓ Communicate effectively (both virtually and in person)
- ✓ Be emotionally intelligent
- ✓ Manage conflict
- ✓ Negotiate confidently
- ✓ Be skilled decision-makers
The good news is: New managers can learn and develop these skills!
JSo, we’ve designed The Management Essentials for New Managers short skills training programme to transition candidates from being efficient employees to being confident managers. They’ll be equipped with a toolbox of skills to face a myriad of management challenges and opportunities while leading their teams to produce business results.
The short skills programme consists of the following eight credit-bearing modules:
