The role of the Manager is critical to the motivation and performance of the team. This programme is about the Manager leading a team to success through the application of sound managerial practice. Transferring skills to the "team" and continually building, motivating and leading a group of people to success is a demanding role. It requires a high degree of interpersonal skills and a keen understanding of human nature. The Manager has to lead and support the team upon whom an organisation is dependent for its profit, its success, its growth, its future and its survival in today's competitive world.

It captures the key criteria that impact on their team, gaining insight into what drivers are in place and how to implement the right drivers. It gives the opportunity to identify their current climate and how they wish to develop this for the future. Once we have established the climate, it is used to throughout the course to identify how this will affect the way that the Manager manages.

The course will focus on the Managers current strengths and then identify areas for development. It will identify the Managers personal operation and what happens when things get more difficult. Working from the climate it will establish whether the Manager is working with a group of individuals or a cohesive team. Developing strategies for the development of their team members. The manager needs to balance motivating and developing his team and that of achieving targets and managing the data. He needs to handle these pressures without it damaging his relationship with his team. 

Having focused on the team environment, we then link this into the current motivational environment. What motivates them personally and recognising what motivates their team members. How to motivate individuals and whether their current incentives and motivators are being effective.

The programme is designed to allow for as much participation as possible via realistic scenarios and simulations. Delegates have an opportunity to analyse 'real situations' relating to their own current work environment during the course. The programme uses self-analysis and simulations including extensive opportunities for each participant to 'have a go' at managing problems and opportunities.

This programme will equip Managers with the understanding and tools to create a new level of excellence within their organisation.
