Management Skills for New Managers

Course Outline

Return to work with the core managerial skills!

As a manager, your success is measured not simply by your individual contribution, but by how well you get the work done with and through others.

Management Skills for New Managers provides practice in the skills every manager must have in order to achieve team synergy and success. Beginning with a self-assessment tool for new managers, you’ll participate in exercises that pinpoint your strengths and bring to light opportunities for improvement. Interactive activities take you through the paces of motivation, delegation, communication, performance management and coaching.  

Learn how to adjust your management style…create an atmosphere where motivation can flourish…use coaching as a tool to improve performance and job satisfaction…and communicate more effectively up, down and across the organization.
