Leadership & Management COACHING

In addition to our support programmes below, we have extensive experience of providing coaching to leaders and managers at all levels of an organisation.  We have helped support new managers who have just started in the role of a Team Leader/Supervisor, as well as the most Senior of Managers and Directors.

Our coaching support programmes are chargeable per session, with a minimum of 4 sessions, as we feel this is the minimum amount of sessions an individual needs before they can begin to experience real change in their situation. 

An Introduction to Management

This programme is specifically aimed at individuals who have just embarked upon their journey into management and who have been promoted/recruited into a Team Leader or Supervisory role.   Six workshops cover the broad spectrum of leadership and management at such a level within the organisation and a work project is undertaken between workshops, so that learning can be applied in practice, within the Team Leader/Supervisor's own environment.

Briefly, workshop titles are as follows:-

1. Leadership vs Management
2. Leadership & Management Styles and their influence on people management
3. Communication
4. Being Assertive
5. Time Management of self and others
6. Introduction to Performance Management

Developing as a Manager

This programme is aimed at Middle Management roles, who have the difficult task of balancing pressures that are applied both from Senior Management and from Subordinates.  The programme consists of 9 workshops, usually delivered over a period of 6 to 9 months and covering in depth, the tasks and behaviours expected of managers in this position.  A work project, assignment and presentation is also completed to enable individuals to implement learning back in their own environment.

Briefly, the programme consists of the following workshop titles:-

1. Expectations of a Middle Management role
2. The importance of leadership style and its influence on people management
3. Planning at an operational level
4. Recruitment & Selection
5. Effective Performance Management (2 day workshop)
6. Team Building
7. Conducting an Effective Training Needs Analysis
8. Budgetary Control
9. Understanding the basics of Financial Information

Providing Direction & Leading  from the Top

Our programme aimed at Senior/Executive Managers, including Directors, focusses on the key skills needed to set the direction of the business and lead from the top.  This programme consists of 4 workshops (each of 2 days duration), designed to bring together individuals of a Senior/Executive level and to help them develop the vision and future strategy that others will help to deliver.

The programme provides a very practical approach to developing Senior/Executive Managers, enabling individuals to have the time away from the organisation to work on the business, rather than in it!  The workshops will help develop the skills necessary to perform effectively at this level, and individuals will have the opportunity to develop their own vision statement, a defined set of values supporting the vision and a corporate strategy.  This is a very intensive programme which has a track record of delivering very powerful changes within organisations and the individual managers themselves.

Briefly, the workshop titles include:-

1. Setting the Direction - Our Vision!
2. Guiding ethics supporting our Vision - Our Values!
3. Developing our Strategy
4. Engaging the workforce and Cascading our Goals
