Team Managers and Leaders Course: The Master Class

Course Information

Management. Lift your career and your organisation.

This six-week course, tailored for emerging leaders, new team leads, and freshly appointed managers, is designed to teach the skills of leading a team effectively and with confidence.

When people are promoted to a manager position, they need to be given the tools to excel in their new role. Being a leader isn't something you're just born with; it's something you can learn.

By the end of the course, participants will have acquired the knowledge and skills necessary to lead a team. In addition, they’ll have a practical leadership toolkit ready for immediate application, along with a personalised leadership blueprint to guide continual improvement in their leadership journey.
