Leading High Performance Teams

Task and People Skills for Middle Managers

Specially designed for those leading larger teams where understanding people and team synergy is key to business success

Uses the MBTI® to raise self-awareness and awareness of others

This 2-module programme enables middle managers to become highly effective team leaders. It uses a model for building high performance teams based on the following 5 areas of team development:

·        Interpersonal relationships – which build team synergy

·        Talented members – who feel confident and competent to contribute

·        Clear responsibilities – so that everyone knows what to do

·        Effective operating procedures – so time is used effectively

·        Reinforcement systems – so people feel good about high performance teams   

Middle managers need to be confident about their leadership style. This means being aware of themselves and the natural gifts they bring to leadership. They also need to learn how to adapt their style for situational leadership. Participants will learn how to produce outcomes in these areas and use check lists to ensure that they take these skills back to their team in the workplace.
