In today’s fast-paced and ever-changing environment many individuals are expected to manage and lead others without position power. Companies that perform depend on Team Leaders, Project Leaders, and Work Coordinators more than ever. While Team Leaders may not have the power of management, they must possess the ability to effectively communicate, influence, set goals, manage time, and resolve conflict. They also need to be able to improve the efficiency of their team through diagnosing problems and effectively training others.
This interactive two-day program will help ensure that your team leaders are well prepared to perform at a high level. Through group discussions, exercises, role-plays and action planning, participants will develop the skills they need to succeed as team leaders, and better understand how to apply those skills to their specific workplace situations.
