ABOUT THE TRAINING

Hi everyone,

​

I'm looking forward to seeing you for the People Management programme. Here's a content overview, so you can see what we'll be covering.

​

Modules 1 & 2: Motivating Teams

​

These modules teach you how to get the best from your teams. They will help you to develop emotional intelligence and to have inspirational, positive conversations to boost performance.

​

• Appreciate your natural management style and its impact; recognise differences in others

• Map your teams onto the DiSC wheel, and create a workable action plan to boost performance

• Know how to deliver recognition that is heard and appreciated; practise positive reinforcement

• Understand the difference between intrinsic and extrinsic motivators

​

Modules 3 & 4: Delegating and Briefing

​

You will come away from these sessions with a clear idea of how to step up and let go. You will learn how to build a culture of ownership and initiative, resulting in improved performance.

​

• Learn to deliver consistently clear, thorough briefs

• Get to grips with the High Challenge-High Support principles and identify your underlying beliefs

• Appreciate how to brief colleagues according to their competence 

• Know when to ‘coach’ and when to ‘direct’

• Use the GROW coaching model to help team members with clarity and decision making

• Check for understanding, providing space for questions and recognise incongruous non verbal signals

Modules 5 & 6: Performance Management

​

These modules show you how to get the best out of others by having assertive and constructive conversations about performance. You will learn how to make performance coaching a way of everyday working life.

​

• Understand the components of a career toolkit

• Set SMART objectives and evaluate success

• Hold performance reviews and identify development needs

• Diagnose poor performance and the reasons

• Understand how to structure critical feedback

• Communicate expectations assertively and explicitly

​

Modules 7 & 8: Challenging Situations

​

These sessions teach you how to handle challenging team members and difficult situations in a constructive manner. They show how to raise matters assertively and objectively, without blame or emotion.  

​

• Know how and when to address conflict

• Learn how to use rewards and penalties

• Plan for different types of difficult conversation

• Empathise with other people’s motives, such as frustration, vulnerability and threat

• Diffuse heated scenarios assertively and sensitively

• Deal with emotional responses, push back and denial

​

See you soon!

Kerry

Please send your responses to questions 1 and 2 to Aoife by Wednesday 31 March.

​

​​

1. What are your 3 most important objectives for the training programme?
    

2. Describe, in detail, a people management challenge that you’re currently facing.
    

3. Please schedule 15 mins with your manager to agree your learning objectives and arrange a time, following the training, to feed back to them on your progress. This step is crucial and will be discussed during the training.

I found the training extremely helpful, especially ahead of some of the management conversations I’ve already had to have to have, so thanks so much!

Thank you again for the management training. It was an informative day with lots learnt and a real insight into things I usually take for granted. I have no doubt I'll be using all the things you taught us.
