Essentials Of Management (Residential) Training Course

This course is perfect for new managers from all disciplines and backgrounds, especially those who are making the transition from being one of the team to taking on people management responsibility.

Delivered in the Cotswolds, this residential course will take you away from the distractions of the office and teach you the fundamentals of management. This includes a definition of your role, the role of your team members and how you manage those individuals to achieve optimum performance. You will learn how to deal with 'difficult' people and situations and most importantly how to delegate effectively and why this is so vital.
