Essential Management Skills 2 Day Course

Being a great people manager is all about effective communication. So, if you're new to management, or you'd like to find out how to motivate your team and lead with confidence, the Essential Management Skills 2 Day Course is for you. Over the two days, you'll explore the essentials of effective management, covering everything from communication and motivation through to coaching and delegation.

Anyone completely new to a supervisory role may want to start with the Introduction to Management & Supervision 1 Day Course first, before moving on to this more in-depth two-day course.

Managers wanting to sharpen their day-to-day communication further alongside their management technique may also find the Communication Skills 1 Day Course a useful companion. There's no formal assessment for this course, but delegates receive a Certificate of Attendance for their records and qualify for 11 CPD hours.
