anager requires a complete rethink and approach to
the ‘day job’. You are no longer responsible just

job to help them keep on track professionally\, de

. It isn’t always easy being honest with people\,
but they do need to understand their reality. This
is probably the biggest challenge of management a
nd one that many managers avoid to the detriment o
f their people.
\n Topics include:
The course c oncludes with action planning and creating next st eps to ensure that the knowledge gained from the c ourse creates real behaviour change in the workpla ce. Each group will become their own peer network to support each other after course completion.
