What will I learn?
There are four sessions to attend, which will cover:
- Insights Discovery: understanding yourself and others, recognising, adapting and connecting to better connect with others, application of this awareness in different types of conversations that managers might need to have.
- Strategic approaches: the manager’s responsibilities, defining the team’s purpose and its organisational and strategic connection and position, managing localised change.
- Managing the team: identifying and practising coaching skills; considering the team culture you want to create and be part of; how to create, apply and improve local policies and processes; optimising the team for future demands; managing restraining and enabling factors.
- Enabling performance and development for individuals: managing the full range of performance, developing others, motivating others, giving impactful feedback.
Is it right for me?
You’ll find the Warwick Management Development Programme useful if:
- You are a first line manager, and
- You are looking to develop awareness and understanding of a range of responsibilities and activities related to your role in people management
Less useful if:
- You have already attended a number of other events or are already familiar with the topics covered within the Warwick Management Development Programme
- You have previously attended Management Essentials
- You are not a first-line manager
If you’re in a supervisory or team leader role, you will find the Warwick Supervisors Development Programme more suitable.
If you’re in a more senior leader role, you will find Warwick Leadership Development Programme more suited to your needs.
