Building and Leading a Great Team

1-Day

OVERALL AIM:

To develop leadership skills in order to build an effective and efficient team ready to take on the challenges faced by the organisation in today’s current market conditions.  Insights will be shared into how to galvanise a disparate group into a cohesive and committed team capable of a real 'performance edge'.  This is a practical, interactive, ‘hands-on’ workshop (with some fun thrown in!).

WHO SHOULD PARTICIPATE:

This course is aimed at anyone currently in a leadership role who is looking to build and develop an effective team.  Team Leaders, Supervisors and Managers at all levels will greatly benefit from this course since professional team building skills are relevant to all levels of the organisation.  The workshop is also useful for those wishing to update/refresh their skills. It is a natural ‘next step’ for those who have already completed The Effective Team Leader/Supervisor Workshop, but is a ‘stand-alone’ workshop in its own right.
