Is This The Right Course For Me?

This team leader training is aimed at people who have just stepped up into their first team management role, or who are about to do so.

To get the most from this course, we would encourage you to come with a shortlist of the biggest challenges that you are facing / will face in your new team leadership role.

We often get asked if this course will apply to people’s specific circumstances. The short answer is yes. This course gives you the tried and tested skills that you need as a team leader. The way that you use them will vary from situation but the tools and techniques remain exactly the same.

For example, the frequency with which you update goals and targets will vary by organisation. However, the way that you do this will remain the same. Similarly, all teams are different but the basics of goal setting remain the same no matter the size or make up a of a team.

We begin by focusing on how you ensure that you can communicate clearly with your team.

Communicating effectively both one-to-one and with your team as a group.
Listening so that you really hear what your team members are telling you.
Why is it important that your behaviour matches your other communication and how to ensure this.

In this section, we look at how you plan for your new team management role.

Whether you are about to become a team leader or already in the role, this will make sure that you are clear about what your new responsibilities are and have a plan to deal with them and the inevitable issues that will arise.

Supervision, Leadership & Management. What are these roles? What are the differences between these roles? What responsibilities go with each of them?
The Transition. How you deal with the change from being a team member to a team leader.
How you will now need to organise yourself, your time and your priorities to ensure your an effective team leader.

This section looks at how you communicate to your team what success looks like, both as a group and individually.

It then looks at how you help them to achieve that success.

It focuses on:

Expectations your team have of you.
Your expectations of your team.
Defining and measuring success.
Setting and measuring objectives and goals.
Taking responsibility and being proactive.

This section focuses on understanding what motivates you and your individual team members to achieve your goals.

It covers: :

Identifying your team’s strengths and minimising the impact of any weaknesses
Understanding different individual styles and how to manage and motivate them
Building each member of your team’s skills and capabilities
Ensuring your team are organised and effective in achieving goals and meeting targets
Giving feedback (positive and negative)
Dealing with difficult and under-performing members of your team appropriately

This is the final session of our team leaders course.

It is time set aside for you to work on your personal action plan and discuss it with us and the rest of the group.

This means that by the time you leave you will be 100% clear on exactly how you will implement what you’ve learned in your workplace.

While the tools and frameworks that we teach are universal their exact application varys according to each specific situation.

We believe that helping you to work through that as you get to grips with being a team leader is critical to building your confidence.
