People Management & Team Leadership Masterclass

Course Overview

Management – “The art of getting things done through other people.” – Mary Parker Follett, American Social Worker

We are all different, but all too often, the importance of our differences in ‘work’ style’ is ignored in the business environment leading to misunderstandings, mistrust, and frustration, not to mention demotivation, reduced productivity, and poor results. To have the capacity to identify which parts of a project or operational tasks other people would tend to focus on and which they would find less compelling, or to recognise how other people would be likely to approach tasks and relationships with others before the work starts would create the foundations of a high performing team and a far more effective organisation.

Emotional Intelligence and Effective Communication are among the most essential skills of a successful Manager in today’s world. With five generations now working together with very different expectations and habits, managers must understand and cohesively lead these societal and cultural changes that have evolved over time. This People Management and Team Leadership Masterclass training course not only takes participants through Planning, Organising, Staffing, Directing and Controlling as the key stages of Managing People and Leading Teams but also investigates and teaches the newly named ‘Power Skills’ required to implement the five key stages.
