Managers' Guide to Maximizing Team Performance
How many managers went to university to learn how to be a great manager? Not many. Being a manager is a complex role of having to achieve results through the efforts of others. This requires a particular set of skills and behaviors. Unfortunately, most managers gain their position and then have to learn the necessary skills on the job, which is not easy for those managing or the people they have to manage. The negative effect of poor management can be enormous both financially and structurally to any organization.
This workshop focuses on how to lead a team from the front and be a true leader with a plan, rather than a manager who simply reacts to situations. Specifically designed for those who are already managers and those seeking to move into a management position, we review proven strategies to create high performance teams, evaluate processes to develop consistency of performance and master the necessary skills and behaviors to encourage people to want to follow your leadership.
