Employers are increasingly using CPD frameworks to develop their managers and leaders.
Read moreHere’s what managers and their HR teams have to say. All of these quotes have come during the course of normal feedback or follow up with clients.
The exercises were interesting - especially negotiation styles. There was a good mix of practical and theory and the workbook complemented the session.
I took away useful skills from the course. I realised I needed to work on the balance between leadership, management and operative tasks. I started to do this the day after the course and continue to do so. The exercise on leaderships styles really struck a chord with me and at a meeting the following day, I adjusted my thinking from 'directing' to 'enabling'. I feel this had a positive effect on my two colleagues in the meeting. My colleague, who attended the course with me, and I have had a very positive discussion about the training since the course and have scheduled a follow-up conversation next month to review progress and discuss ideas. The course trainer was very professional and I was impressed by their approach. They recommended two books which I have now bought.
The trainer made the participants feel relaxed and comfortable. Understanding the different styles of leadership and bringing in examples from organisations within the room was most useful.
The course was very informative and has improved my confidence. The trainer was very engaging and allowed delegates to give their point of view.
Differentiating between leadership and management was most useful, as was understanding team motivations. The leadership style exercise was very good.
I found the Transactional Analysis and DISC profiling very useful for self-reflection. The flow of information and models made sense and were logical.
There was good rapport within the group. The course was fun and interactive - held at a lovely venue with good food and refreshments.
The course was very interactive and allowed for the delegates' varying views and opinions. It made me look at myself in a different light and has got me thinking of many things that I can now consider and implement.
The course was very engaging. We were able to communicate with others in the group in a very comfortable and safe environment.
The content was relevant to all industry sectors. The trainer had a very approachable delivery style. There was time to reflect, apply to one's current situation and to think of next steps.
