Team leadership is not new or innate. New and existing team leaders often remain unsure of their approach to the daily encounters surrounding their leadership dilemmas. It is the close examination and analysis of the intricacies of team leadership that allow a better understanding of the skills required for effective delegation, coaching, team member support, and daily planning.This workshop provides you with common-sense skills to guide your team better. Being an effective team leader means understanding the team’s needs, the expectations of your organisation, and at times, being the intermediary between the two. With the strategies to build a more cohesive team, both you, your organisation and your individual team members will benefit from this course.Building confidence and motivation within a team requires knowledge. This workshop will teach you when to apply the specific styles of leadership according to the situation: when the level of staff skills improve; or when it is necessary to raise the self confidence of your team members; or even when to effectively apply your coaching strategies. But most of all, these two days will build YOUR confidence, skills, understanding and motivation as a team leader.
