Many managers are promoted to the line-management role because they’re good at their existing job. In our experience first time line-managers welcome help in the form of new knowledge, insight, tools, tips and techniques in the early part of their management career that is deeply practical and pragmatic.

Our 8 module Essentials Programme covers the basics, without overwhelming participants. The easy to access, bite-sized learning events and supporting materials are designed to allow new managers to use effective skills and practices straight away in their role.

Learning Outcomes:

• Understand what to expect when making the transition from managing yourself to managing others
• Understand the role of the line manager and the responsibilities it brings
• Design a line management cadence with regular set-piece team meetings and 1:1s
• Prepare for the challenges of the role including setting boundaries and expectations
• Explore how to set the focus and direction of travel using an effective goal setting framework
• Discover how to support performance with regular check-ins, formal appraisals, feedback and development conversations
• Learn how to identify and tackle common early management challenges
• Learn the best-practice time-management techniques

The facilitators clearly have a deep understanding of behavioural science and leadership psychology.
