People Leave Managers Not Organisations!

For most organisations, the rise to supervisory position is a reward for superior functional expertise or star performance as an independent contributor and not due to training or for their leadership potential.

Overlooking the impact, a supervisor or manager has on both culture and people will come back to haunt us. Employee retention, engagement and well-being are dependent on high performing leaders.

A supervisor or manager sets the tone and is the major influence on the employee in the work environment. As the supervisor pervades every aspect of the employee’s work life, the quality of this relationship dictates the level of discretionary effort and the degree of loyalty employees give to the organization.

Professionals who have excelled in management & leadership functions have mastered the People Acumen (the ability to influence engaged performance) & Business Acumen (understanding how a business creates value & makes money) competencies. This hands-on skills development workshop will expose supervisors & new managers to brilliant fresh ideas, foolproof proven strategies, & tools they need to excel.
