Leadership Skills for New Supervisors and Managers

Enroll in our 3-day competency-based training, now upgraded with Soft Skills Trek™ & Collective Intelligence Training!*

Employees are often promoted to leadership roles due to their technical skills, but true leadership requires more—mentorship, decision-making, and teamwork. Poor leadership negatively impacts both employees and the organisation.

According to Gallup’s 2022 report:

• 88% of employees leave due to job satisfaction, workplace culture, or management—not pay.
• 43% of employees feel undervalued.
• 66% are not motivated by company goals.
• The main reason employees leave? A poor relationship with their leader.

What’s new in this workshop?

• Soft Skills Trek™ – A game-based leadership experience that develops competencies through interactive scenarios and AI-powered assessments.
• Collective Intelligence Training – Teaches managers to think strategically, collaborate effectively, and make data-driven decisions.

This program equips new leaders with modern management techniques to build motivated, high-performing teams.

Join us to enhance your leadership skills and create a thriving workplace!

Includes our Management Skills and Styles Assessment Psychometric Assessment.
