Manager Development

With flatter organisational structures, managers at all levels are facing increasing pressures to deliver stretching results.

Results are delivered through their people, but many managers struggle with directing and motivating their teams to perform at optimum levels.  Often this is through underdeveloped management and leadership skills.

Much research has been done into the terms ‘management’ and ‘leadership’ – this has been focussed largely on separating and distinguishing the two.  Arguably in modern organisations a manager should be able to demonstrate a blend of both concepts to get the best results from their team.

Determining ‘what makes an effective manager/leader’ for an organisation is typically done through a competence framework.  The framework can then be used as the backbone for all recruitment, development and succession planning activities.  Developing and implementing a competence framework which really works can be a hit-or-miss affair – many fall to the wayside through being too cumbersome, too HR centric or too theoretical.

the Difference provides proven expertise in all areas and at all levels of manager development:

  • Developing competence frameworks
  • Executive level development
  • Implementing a coaching culture
  • Leadership and management skills training
  • Personal development planning
  • Assessment and development centres
