Leadership and Supervisory Skills

Great leadership in an organisation is essential. But it can be hard to come by. Studies show that 40 percent of new leaders fail within the first 18 months. The good news is that leadership failure can be predicted and prevented when managers are given the right resources.

Supervisors are the vital link between an organisation and its work groups. They need to have key skills and proficiencies to set the tone for the workplace. If someone is a good supervisor, they can perform their job more efficiently and gain more respect from their peers and subordinates.

Adapting Your Leadership Style

Strong Leadership is critical for successful organisations. If a company has a strong leadership team, it is more likely to meet goals, empower its employees, motivate its teams, and ensure future growth.

It’s important to adopt the qualities of an effective leader and communicate more constructively with your team – and you can do this by adjusting your behavioural style to meet the needs of employees. This virtual instructor-led training event will provide you with the tools you need to be able to facilitate meetings smoothly, engage in constructive one-on-one conversations and, ultimately, build rapport among colleagues.
