Managing High-Performance Teams

Practical, game-changing management training

 

Managers are key to high-performing teams and successful organisations.

Managing a team presents demands and challenges that require specific skills. Yet, many managers are not benefiting from the training and coaching they need to succeed. Too often, dedicated managers are overwhelmed, disconnected and exhausted. Managers are at risk of burnout. Teams are at risk of disengaging and under performing. Studies show that 70% of team engagement is influenced by the manager.

The Managing High-Performance Teams training program is designed to equip managers to thrive. The training program is practical, inspiring and energising. Participants have the opportunity to connect with, and learn alongside other managers.   Whether your team is working from the office, home or a hybrid setting, the training is highly relevant.
