The Effective Leader

This  module looks at the four types of leader: directive, consultative, delegative and participative and the characteristics of each. We will explore the three  areas of need: task needs, individual needs and team needs and look at ways  in which you can motivate your team.

Developing Leadership

The  primary responsibility of a leader is to ensure their team achieves its task.  This module will look at how to define the task and set objectives. We will  explore the different leadership styles and the characteristics of each. The  main functions of leadership include controlling the process of achieving the  task, evaluating the outcome and keeping the team motivated, we will look at  each of these in turn. Finally we will look at the importance of setting a  good example.

Flexible Leadership

Although  it’s important to select a leadership style that works best for you, it’s  recommended that you adopt a flexible approach as research shows that  managing your team in accordance with their individual needs creates a more  motivated, engaged and effective group. This is especially important in  today’s dynamic workplaces where workloads, team members, customers and  resources are constantly changing. This module explores the different  styles of leadership and how to modify your own.

Coaching & Mentoring

This  module explores the difference between coaching and mentoring. We will look  at how to coach and mentor effectively and how to create a personal  development plan.

Giving & Receiving Feedback

This  module will explore the four main work climates: comfortable, stressful,  apathetic and high performance and the characteristics of each. We will look  at the importance of feedback on improving performance and will look at not  only giving feedback but also receiving it.

Taking Action

Once a  decision has been made, the next step is to take action and implement it.  This module explores several approaches to help you ensure the implementation  process is successful including the G.R.O.W (Goal, Reality, Options, Wrap-Up)  and V-SAFE (Valuable, Suitable, Acceptable, Feasible and Enduring) models.

Motivation and Effective Feedback

Motivation  is the key to encouraging your staff to go the extra mile. This module will  look at the who is responsible for motivating the workforce, the theories  behind motivation and six steps to help you motivate both yourself and  others.

Managing Virtual Teams

Virtual  teams work independently on a shared organisational purpose, using a  range of technologies to communicate and collaborate. This module looks at  the benefits and challenges of working in a virtual team, the importance of a  clear communication plan and the role of the manager in ensuring  the teams success.

Training for Non-Trainers

Performance Troubleshooting

Performance  problems are likely to occur at some stage in the workplace. This module will  examine the Human Performance system, a method of identifying performance  problems before looking for solutions. We will look at how the working  environment can influence performance and the importance of giving feedback  when dealing with performance problems.

Making Objectives Happen

Objectives are part of our everyday working lives. This module explores the four main  types of objective and how to achieve these objectives by following the Make  Objectives Happen Loop.
