Developing your teams for greater results

This training is specially designed to boost management performance. It provides insight into leadership, and how to inspire, stretch and empower others.

When is the next public date for this programme?

Many people choose to have this programme in-house and so it may be a while before we run it as a public training course. We have options for one-to-one support or in house group support. If that sounds right for you, the best way to start this process is with a conversation (for free of course). Contact us online or call 074 3690 3103 to book a call with one of our experienced consultants.

Does it run online?

Yes, and also face to face. It's equally suitable for both options. For more information on the differences between online and face to face training, visit our Learning and Development page.

I'm interested in group training for people at our organisation

If you have 6 or more people to train it's worth getting in touch to discuss in-house options.

These include:

your choice of structure – as well as choosing dates to suit you, you can also decide whether to have the content delivered in full days, half-day sessions or bitesize sessions over separate days.
tailoring options – if you're looking to focus on particular elements of the programme, we can look into this.
self-directed learning – this enables participants to set learning goals, acquire knowledge and skills, set their own actions and evaluate themselves using a customised web portal which we'll build for you.

In order to make sure your in-house training needs are met, the best way to start this process is with a conversation (for free of course). Contact us online or call 074 3690 3103 to speak to one of our experienced consultants.

At the core of the programme is a combination of contemporary management and leadership thinking and practical tools. Over four busy online sessions participants work through a series of models and frameworks to hone their leadership, support others’ development and inspire and engage their teams. It provides an opportunity for managers to reflect on, refine and deepen their management skills. In addition, there is an emphasis on using effective coaching to engage others and retain high performers. Ultimately, these skills enable participants to develop teams and individuals to to greater results in more empowering ways.

Who is the programme for?

This programme is for experienced managers who want to take their management practice to the next level. It is suited to managers looking for a way to extend and develop their skills and confidence.

If you’ve attended our Emerging Managers Programme, this is a natural next step in your development. (N.b. it’s not essential to have had prior management training with =mc).
