Course description
It has always been too easy for line-managers to throw their HR issues over the fence to Human Resources. Managers often haven’t been equipped with the skills, knowledge and confidence to own their own team challenges.
Effective managers seek to take ownership of their team's development, and that includes managing the tougher sides of people management. This is not about taking risks but owning the problems and liaising with HR to ensure the ideal outcome is always achieved, quickly and effectively.
This Five-day programme is a highly practical and action-oriented development opportunity for anyone who is expected to develop others, which will leave participants feeling more confident and excited to apply their ability to develop others more effectively.
