Management Training

Management is a huge field of activity and effective management is not a series of quick fixes. We believe one of the ways to manage better is have both an understanding of what is needed from managers and the skills to make things happen.

The following are some of the regular topics we get asked about. You can also look at our recent activities.

Building an Effective Team

What makes an effective team? How do you create a high performing team from a disparate group of personalities?  What happens when an established team leader moves on or new people join? 

Team working is a key to most great workplaces. Learning about the dynamics of teams and how to use your leadership to focus and shape a team can make this experience a brilliant adventure.

Managing Your Time and Yourself

Learn to manage time rather than feel like its slave! 

Identify the skills and behaviours required for effective time management.
Strengthen your self-beliefs in managing your own time that put you in control. 
Examine and evaluate techniques for effective time management to achieve both organisational and personal objectives.

Supervision and Appraisals

Learn how to create a regular time, place and opportunity to help individuals to match their potential to their performance. Learn how to set targets for success, give positive feedback and build action plans that really make a difference and improve effectiveness.

Health and Safety

Health and Safety has an image problem! It’s become synonymous with over zealous officialdom and can feel like a long list of “things you can’t do” but at its heart are some simple common sense principles.

Effective Health and Safety policies are about finding ways to turn common sense into common practice.  The legal aspects of being safe are simple and direct and can be understood by all.

We can help your staff take Health and Safety seriously while having a lot of fun.

Dealing with Difficult People

Differences of approach and perspective are a part of all working lives. What skills can you learn to make managing these differences and occasional conflicts productive and progressive?

We can help you develop a range of influencing skills, deal assertively with anger and disruption, give and receive feedback and identify styles of coping well with these experiences.

Better Presentations

There is more to giving an effective presentation than avoiding Death by Powerpoint—though we can also help you avoid that!

Learn some simple techniques and body language that will help you get your message across without distraction. Learn to act confidently even if you don’t feel confident.
