Best Practice in Managing People
Programme Details
Overview
This programme provides solutions to the challenges faced by line managers in managing and motivating people to achieve an organisation's objectives and results.
Drawing on current research and practical exercises, participants will be provided with concepts and frameworks that can be directly applied in the work place. The first day focuses on how organisations cope with change, the implications for the workforce and the role of the manager to sustain and increase commitment and performance during times of change and uncertainty. The second day provides practical tool-kits in the functional areas of line management. We conclude with each participant preparing a personal learning action plan for post-course development.
The two days are highly interactive and reflective, and we use industry examples, case studies and role play as well as insights from latest research to create a lively and productive learning environment.
"This was a great balance of theory and examples in practice. Excellent tutors that encouraged group participation. I would recommend the course to anyone in people management."
