You build a solid foundation as a manager. You get a grip on your role, learn to switch between steering and letting go depending on the situation, and develop a coaching style that strengthens ownership within your team.

Description

In this course you build a solid foundation under your role as a manager and go deeper into two important styles: situational and coaching leadership.

You start with the basics. You consider your role, your position within the team and the way you communicate. You work on expressing expectations, steering on behaviour and results, holding difficult conversations and delegating tasks. Motivation, ownership and resilience in times of change are also covered.

After that you explore the situational leadership model. You get to know the four styles, learn to recognise development levels in employees and practise switching between instructing, coaching, supporting and delegating. This helps you tailor your approach to what a situation or employee needs.

The final part focuses on coaching leadership. You practise listening, summarising, asking follow-up questions and holding a structured coaching conversation. You learn how to increase ownership without taking over, how to use feedback as a development tool and how to deal with resistance, emotions and avoidance behaviour.

You work throughout with your own cases and situations from your daily practice, so you can apply what you have learned directly in your team.

Target audience

This course is intended for managers who want to deepen and strengthen their skills. You work with a variety of teams and are looking for a coherent programme in which you learn to switch between directing, aligning and coaching.

Teaching method

We work from practice with a varied approach. You bring in your own situations and cases and reflect on what is going on within your team. Short explanations alternate with exercises, reflection and immediate application. This way you translate insights straight into your own work and arrive at concrete actions you can put to use in practice.

Prior knowledge

You do not need any specific prior knowledge. Some basic insight into leadership helps, but is not a requirement. Anyone who wants to develop in situational and coaching leadership is welcome.

Comments

Deze vijfdaagse bestaat uit drie onderdelen: Leidinggeven Basis, Leadership in depth: situational and Leadership Advanced: Coaching. Elk onderdeel is ook apart te boeken.

In de combinatie kom je verder dan met de basis alleen: je eigen casussen uit je werk lopen als rode draad door beide verdiepingen, en je leert schakelen tussen sturen en coachen. Het hele pakket is voordeliger dan de drie onderdelen los.

In-company

Would you like to organise this training for a whole group or several groups? This can be cost-effective. For example, we can tailor the content entirely to your organisation, and training a whole group is also cheaper.

Are you looking at large numbers of participants or a complete academy? That involves a great deal. Consider planning and communication, for example, or identifying and agreeing the objectives and content of the training. Or differences in level, feedback mechanisms and safeguarding. Fortunately, Learnit has extensive experience in this field (more than 25 years) and we are happy to help you through this process.
