Are your managers building high-performance teams?
Managers can only build and sustain high-performance teams if they ensure a productive workplace atmosphere. Developing such a climate requires attitudes and skills to bring out the best in people.
Research shows the relationship with the immediate manager to be the biggest factor in decisions to invest discretionary effort or just the minimum, ie to engage or disengage. Ensuring that managers do have the necessary self-awareness and skills is essential, but is often overlooked.
Visit www.managerofchoice.co.uk to review the CHOICE programme; leadership and team-building skills for managers.
...it is not just another training course: it is a development programme. It focuses on recent discoveries from neuroscience as to how the mind works, which are changing the paradigm for managing people.
...it comprises workshops, before-and-after feedback from direct reports and self-coach tools. The programme is essentially an experiential work-based journey designed to increase knowledge, self-awareness and skills to sustain high engagement and performance levels.
...it espouses a new management paradigm that can assist any employer to meet the exceptional challenges they face today. However, our experience is that such programmes have most impact when the client's ethos closely aligns with our own and is supported by the organisational culture. We'd be happy to discuss that with you.
