Appraisals and Supervisions
Regular one-to-one contact with
your staff is essential. This is true
when performance is good and critical when it is poor.
How do you make best use of
the
time?
Are appraisals and supervision seen as
integral, or as an add-on, squeezed in when and where possible?
We can help you re-evaluate how you appraise and
supervise, turning it into a positive, effective win-win activity for
you and your staff.

Conflict Management
Conflict is an
inevitable part of people management.
Handled
correctly, it can be defused and
used as an opportunity for change.
Mishandle
it and self-confidence and team morale
can be destroyed.
This
workshop not only gives you effective
communication
techniques but time to practice them – because practice makes permanent.

Creative Problem-Solving
Do you want a new way of looking
at
problems? In fact, do you want to really see them for the challenges
and opportunities that they are?
In this fast-paced, fun half-day workshop,
you will learn how to effectively brainstorm and find creative and
workable solutions to the problems facing your business.

Delegation
Delegation can be one of
the hardest skills
for managers to master. Yet delegation frees up their time and develops
their staff.
Done correctly, delegation is a
fantastic
win-win solution. Done badly, it is a fiasco with enormous costs.
This half-day workshop will give you an
easy-to-use technique for analysing the job and the skills needed – and
finding the right person to do it.

Time Management
Everyone gets 60 minutes
in an hour.
The secret is maximising how you
manage that
time – work smarter, not longer.

of
time management:-
- Do it
- Decide about it
- Delegate it
- Dump it
Most importantly, it leaves you with
an action
plan to
