MANAGEMENTS ESSENTIALS FOR MID-LEVEL MANAGERS

All mid-level managers and supervisors in any organization have the opportunity to lead, supervise, mentor and motivate others – and their ability to do so effectively makes a huge difference to the company’s overall success. In fact, the success of the organization has as much if not more to do with the performance of your mid-level managers and supervisors as it does with the performance of the CEO and his or her senior team.

Now, the bad news: 50-80% of all middle managers fail to achieve the expectations of those who promote them. With over 70 % of the managers in every organization in this category, that’s a lot of missed expectations! Why is this so, and what can you do about it?

In spite of the plethora of technical training available for middle managers in most industries, this group has to “sink or swim” more on their own than just about any other professional group in the corporate world. Why? Because the training programs geared for this group are either too generic or focus on technical skills instead of people skills. Managing is about bringing out the best in people, not overwhelming subordinates with technical information. Learning to be a more effective manager is complex, not simple, and one technique definitely does not fit all managers

Moreover, middle managers are generally the most under-supported and under-developed segment of employees.

Management training develops employee’s strength and their ability to contribute to the organization

This course is designed to develop participants with managerial competency fostered to ensure the company’s overall success.
