An intensive professional development training course on
The Effective Supervisor
Managing Time, Tasks and Teams with Competence and Confidence
Why Choose this Training Course?
Whether you are newly promoted or an experienced supervisor, the transition from being part of a team to leading one comes with a steep learning curve and can be extremely stressful. You may have reached where you are by hard work and technical skills but leading a team to improve results for the company requires a whole different skill set.
Supervisors need to manage their own tasks as well as lead the team, solve problems, implement systems and report up and down the hierarchy. They require a solid foundation of leadership skills, time management skills, communication skills, technical skills, as well as possessing high levels of emotional intelligence, self-discipline and motivation. Stepping up the ladder gives you a broader perspective of how you and your team contribute to your companies’ goals and successes. This new perspective comes with an increased responsibility. The right training can make that challenge an exciting and empowering one.
This dynamic and interactive Effective Supervisor training course will enable you to become a confident, credible and capable supervisor, by focusing on the skill set required to manage yourself, your work load and your team.
