Overview

The progression from team member to a management role requires a broadened skillset.  

It means not only maintaining your existing subject matter expertise, but also building additional skills to steward teams through challenges, build productive stakeholder relationships and influence senior leadership. Managers must focus on team over individual performance, balance strategic direction with operational detail and navigate a range of different relationships, work styles and perspectives. 

New Managers is a purpose built program designed to support this  transition for first-time managers by helping build practical strategies to excel and thrive at this next level of your career. It’s highly interactive, with opportunities for you to connect with and learn from peers from a range of government jurisdictions, departments and agencies in a confidential, high-trust environment. 

Cohorts are limited in size to allow adequate time to address individual needs and tackle real-life challenges being faced in the workplace. 

Audience

  • are new to leading teams or projects (up to 18 months’ experience) 
  • have recently been appointed to higher duties with management responsibilities.

  • employ strategies that foster team engagement and performance.  

Who will lead the course?

Hamish Alexander – leadership educator and contemporary adult learning practitioner with extensive experience working in the public sector and and developing manager capability.

Format
