This course is designed for anyone who needs to work through others—that is, anyone in a management role.

Success as a manager comes from knowing how to make others productive. It is dependent on one’s ability to delegate, motivate and influence their actions.

Activities such as strategic planning and competitive analysis consume about 2% or 3% of middle management’s time and represent 90% of the training that is received. The vast majority of what managers do relates to assigning tasks, motivating staff, and ensuring that work gets done on time and correctly; in other words, on management rather than strategy.

No matter what level of manager you are, you need to learn the tools and tricks of how to manage others. This course provides a solid grounding in the core disciplines of management. The emphasis is not planning but rather the skills necessary to put a plan into action.

Case studies are used to paint scenarios that illustrate common management errors in each of the topic areas. Class discussions of these scenarios allow students to dissect and apply relevant skills in a real world setting.

By the end of the class students will be able to:

  • Assess their own management strengths and weakness
  • Delegate efficiently and effectively
  • Create motivation plans for diverse staff
  • Use leadership as a motivation tool
  • Deal with conflict and difficult people
  • Communicate goals and roles
  • Provide feedback and manage performance

Students will qualify for 21 PDUs / 1.8 CEUs.

Who should attend:

Anyone that is in management or is planning to be a manager of people. The skills described in this course represent fundamental tools that every middle, upper, or project manager needs.
