Course description
Springboard Spring Forward for New Managers Overview - Open Course
Culture change needs to be driven from the top, when increasing diversity within organisations. It needs to be embedded however, throughout the organisation. Every employee deserves the opportunity to progress and fulfil their potential in their chosen field, regardless of their background.
Spring Forward is a career development programme for people who are approaching or newly appointed to a management role. It is also appropriate as a next step for those who have previously participated in the Springboard Women’s Development Programme or the Navigator Work and Personal Development Programme for Men.
The programme enables participants to learn how to lead a team, work on management confidence & gain insight into how gender, culture and managerial issues influence communication at work. It will include:
- Presenting yourself positively as a leader
- Moving up within your organisation
- Honing your communication skills with your peers & team
- Implementing a healthy stress management strategy
- Building self-motivation and create a positive attitude
- Overcoming any barriers to success
A dedicated BAME Spring Forward programme is also available to understand the specific challenges faced by minority groups.
Spring Forward work & personal development training programme is delivered by our sister company Springboard Consultancy.
The programme is composed of 3 two day virtual workshops with regular starts throughout the year (see dates).
