Why this Course is Important

“Discover the essential leadership traits and master proven management skills to become a successful first-time manager or team leader.”

Becoming a supervisor, team leader, or manager for the first time is exciting and daunting. Just a few days ago, you were one of the team, and now you’re managing the team. What do you need to do now that you are in charge? What is expected of someone in a supervisory role compared to being a team member?

Aside from the increased responsibilities (and possible pay increase), new managers must learn what they are expected to manage and their team’s objectives, goals, and key performance indicators. You’ll also need to learn how to be a leader your team respects.

Whether you’re about to become a new manager or you aspire to move into a manager role in the future, the Everything You Need to Know When You’re a First-Time Manager session will provide you with the knowledge and skills to do a brilliant job from the outset.
