Why Choose Us

The Women in Management: Leading People and Driving Performance training course develops the practical skills women require to manage people and strengthen team performance. Effective management extends beyond technical expertise, requiring clear expectations, coordinated work and consistent results aligned with organisational priorities. Managers must delegate responsibilities, support employee development, address performance concerns and ensure people understand their individual accountabilities. Women entering or advancing in management will consider how to establish authority and adopt a consistent approach to managing others.

Participants explore the complete management cycle, including objective setting, responsibility allocation, progress monitoring, feedback and recognition of achievement. They also examine how communication, motivation and fair decision-making influence employee engagement and everyday working relationships. Realistic management scenarios provide opportunities to address competing priorities, unclear accountability, conflict and underperformance. The course concludes with a team performance improvement plan linking management practices to measurable workplace outcomes.
