Develop Kickass New Managers
Not training new managers can have big repercussions, because first-level managers are directly responsible for organizing and enabling the work of approximately 80% of an organization’s employees.
Challenges addressed by this program:
The big transition: From managing self to managing others
Becoming a new manager requires someone to stop focusing on getting results through their own efforts and technical competence and instead focus on achieving results through others.
It sounds simple, but it’s a transition that trips up most new managers. It requires a whole new approach to work and a new set of skills to organize and manage the work for other people and then enable and motivate them to get work done.
A business-critical need: Because untrained managers hurt the bottom line
- Most new managers are left to just “figure it out.”: Research conducted by The Ken Blanchard Companies found that 61% of new managers received no training either before or during the first three years of being a manager.
- In fact, there’s a multi-year training gap: People most frequently become first-time managers between the ages of 29 and 36. However, the research found that managers get their first leadership training at age 41 – many years after they begin supervising.
- Not training new managers can have big repercussions: First-level managers are directly responsible for organizing and enabling the work of approximately 80% of an organization’s employees. So if managers lack the management skills and mindset to do their jobs well, this can directly negatively impact a company’s bottom line.
