Editor's Notes
- #3 Andrea talks to this slide.
- #4 Management and leadership skills are important regardless of an individual’s role within the organization. Through strengthening their management and leadership skills, employees become an asset to their company – seen as the “go to” person to get the job done. In today’s webinar you will learn why management and leadership skills are an essential component to success in today’s growing global economy.
- #5 Thank you. Hi everyone and thanks for participating. I am really happy to be here speaking about management and leadership, the Corporate Education Group programs, and your career development. Over the next hour you are going to becoming more familiar with Corporate Education Center, our programs, and the importance of business analysis skills – no matter what your role or title is in your organization. Keep in mind, our classes not only teach you management and leadership skills, but also expose you to the experience of your classmates and instructors. One of the most significant learning objectives in these programs is the experience of others within their organizations.
- #7 The good news: Significant progress has been made on a variety of talent management fronts — from getting foundational programs in place to creating and deploying new programs, such as high potential development, leadership development, and succession planning. However, most of the progress has been made in the executive ranks, with less focus beyond the highest management levels.
- #8 Further, most organizations do not believe that their managers have the capabilities needed to manage and develop talent. Employees are not getting sufficient guidance on how to develop their skills and grow in the organization. The lack of accountability for developing talent below executive levels, coupled with managers’ lack of capability to develop talent, are key drivers of the struggle many organizations have effectively and consistently executing talent management practices.
- #9 Our first poll question is a multiple choice: Why do people need management and leadership skills to be successful? Think about what you are being asked to do at work every day? If you manage employees, think about the challenges of doing so? If you don’t manage employees, why would you need management skills anyway? After the poll: There are many, many reasons to increase your management and leadership skills! This list barely covers the need for such skills regardless of your role within the organization.
- #10 Today’s employees are valued when they show skills in: communicating throughout the organization managing projects and processes effectively and efficiently multi-tasking building relationships and influencing outcomes to the benefit of the organization
- #14 Is the ee ready to let go of day to day tasks, assign them to someone else where it will be a growth opportunity. For high achievers who are expert in producing a certain kind of work managing others to achieve that same kind of success may not seem as fulfilling as producing the work themselves. So, if I was a trainer in an organization and I LOVED conducting the training classes myself and then moved into a position where I was managing the training function of a group of 12 people I’m going to have to back away from doing the training myself. I might pick one workshop that I liked training and conduct that once a month or once a quarter but most of my time and attention will be spent managing the overall training function.
- #16 Assign the work and offer support through its completion. Don’t ask, do you have any questions. The answer may likely be no. Instead, ask, what questions do you have? Make the assumption that there are questions (unless the task is super simple). Get to know your people and the level of direction and support they need. Someone who gets it done right the first time = the person who needs less support and direction; the person who misses the mark needs more support and direction. Do you ever get the sense that an employee didn’t understand or that you anticipate the final work product won’t meet specifications? Continue the conversation and check for full understanding. Establish goals and milestones (break the project up for the individual into bite sized pieces). This is where project management comes into play.
- #17 You’re A or B player most likely wants to be challenged by the work, learn, grow and develop. Pass on the individual contributor legacy work that you no longer need to handle but would represent an in place development opportunity for someone on the team. Don’t let boredom set in for your employees with more potential. Stretch assignment.
- #18 Does the top performer being considered for a management role have: The patience to answer questions in details and more than once? Sink or swim approach? Arrogant, why are you bothering me type of tone will find they have fewer questions to answer- no one wants to look stupid in front of their boss and if made to feel that way they will minize contact, spend time trying to figure things out themselves and may or may not have the right answers meaning they go off onto the wrong direction. Waste time, frustration builds and confidence is eroded in this sink or swim/don’t bother me with trivial question environment. Answer questions in an unassuming, non-condescending manner. Christine Ryan example: Oh, so what you need to know is…or let me give you some background on this that will help you…
- #19 Individual Contributors being considered for a step up into a management role are not threatened by other colleagues with greater subject matter expertise. A new engineering manager will have people on her staff with deep subject matter expertise. Specific domain expertise. Can either feel threatened or recognize the individual’s strengths. Sometimes exhibiting itself as micro management. Example: Technology company- struggle between finding someone with engineering management skills and the person who had the deep technical knowledge.
- #20 Situational leadership helps identify where someone is in their career/position and the appropriate support. Know each employee and their interests, challenges etc.
- #21 This is a list of just some of the critical/soft skills that individuals with strong management and leadership skills possess!
- #26 When should you have a feedback conversation with someone?
- #28 CEG management and leadership classes are “hands-on” – activities in the form of team exercises, case studies and facilitated discussions engage the learner. Participants contribute to the class by bringing their own experiences into the classroom and sharing with other participants. Instructors are practitioners in their area of expertise and bring real-world experience to every classroom experience.
- #29 CEG can help you to begin your career by increasing your management/leadership skills so that you are ready for more challenging roles within your organization. Our certificate programs provide you with the skills needed for today’s global environment where employees are being asked to work within shorter timeframes and reduced budgets.
- #30 We offer a variety of certificates to help you advance and grow in your career. Marketing Fundamentals Certificate: Learn the skills necessary to increase your effectiveness at marketing.
