An accredited qualification for current and prospective managers. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This programme gives Team Leaders & Managers the skills, disciplines and confidence to manage their team effectively and add a great deal more value to the organisation - where they have to apply their learning in order to achieve the highly coveted ILM qualification. One of the main responsibilities of a manager is to make sure that employees are satisfied with their job and reaching their full potential. A manager who can energise his or her employees will have a team which has a much greater potential and capability of achieving company goals and objectives. It is therefore vital that a manager has the essential skills to fully support and lead their team to success. This 3-day programme brings together the key leadership skills that you will need to be an effective manager so that you can return to the workplace and deliver tangible results. All of our ILM Programmes are provided in partnership with The BCF Group, which is the ILM Approved Centre we deliver under. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COURSE SYLLABUS The syllabus of the ILM Level 3 Award in Leadership and Management course is split into three main modules, covering the following: MODULE ONE SOLVING PROBLEMS AND MAKING DECISIONS * What is a problem? * How to identify a problem, its nature, scope and impact * Identifying the root cause * Understanding how to interpret information to solve a problem * What is involved in making an informed decision? * Generate ideas/solutions- creative thinking techniques * How to evaluate your options * Finding the critical path * Having confidence to commit to a decision * Planning approach * Communicating the decision * Implementing the plan MODULE TWO UNDERSTANDING LEADERSHIP * What is leadership? * Recognise the differences and similarities between leadership and management * Qualities and skills of a leader * Action Centered Leadership - Team, Task, Individual - John Adair * Varying leadership styles * Evaluating a range of leadership models and their significance for: Task, Performance, Culture, Relationships * Reflect on your own leadership styles and behaviours * Create an action plan to enhance your performance MODULE THREE UNDERSTANDING THE COMMUNICATION PROCESS IN THE WORKPLACE * Identify what is effective communication * Understand the importance of effective communication at work * Recognise the different ways we communicate * Recognise possible barriers to communication and how to overcome them * Johari's window - communication flows * How others will perceive and interpret the information you have provided * Active listening * Developing questioning skills * Understanding the significance of non-verbal communication and body language * Developing sensory acuity and how to use it effectively in the workplace -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- IN-HOUSE & CLASSROOM COURSES AVAILABLE ONLINE We have developed an alternative to traditional face-to-face training that continues to provide a full learning experience, and allows delegates to learn effectively whilst self-isolating from home. This is how it looks: Delegates booked on Classroom and In-House courses will continue to have access to their trainer online throughout the days that the course is booked to run. Prior to a delegate's course start date, they will be enrolled on our e-learning platform (in partnership with BCF Group [https://www.thebcfgroup.co.uk/management-training/ilm-level-3-award-leadership-and-management.php]) for the course they are booked on to. They will also be given contact information for their trainer, and details of how to access the online workshops. Delegates will not require any special IT equipment. A desktop computer, laptop, tablet, or a mobile phone with internet and audio capability is all that is required. Delegates taking ILM Qualifications will then proceed to the book review, video review and work based assignments with 12 months tutor support as appropriate, and in line with our previous arrangements. We hope you agree that this blended learning experience represents the safest way to continue supporting our clients and delegates during the Coronavirus disruption. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- IN-HOUSE COURSES As well as being one of the most popular open courses, we can also arrange this course as an in-house programme for companies and organisations who wish to develop a number of their managers at the same time, and would find an in-house course at their own premises much more suitable. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SCHEDULED COURSES CLASSROOM COURSE - NOTTINGHAM (NG12 4DG) Classroom training courses enable you to benefit from having the tutor and other delegates right there in the room with you. Face-to-face training sessions are one of the best ways to learn, as it is easy to ask questions and have group discussions.

Activities are then rated based on urgency and importance, priorities assigned, and deadlines set. This process results in a plan with a task list or calendar of activities. Routine and recurring tasks are often given less focus to free time to work on tasks that contribute to important goals. This entire process is supported by a skill set that should include personal motivation, delegation skills, organization tools, and crisis management. 1 - GETTING STARTED * Icebreaker * Housekeeping Items * The Parking Lot * Workshop Objectives 2 - SETTING SMART GOALS * The Three P?s * The SMART Way * Prioritizing Your Goals * Visualization 3 - PRIORITIZING YOUR TIME * The 80/20 Rule * The Urgent/Important Matrix * Being Assertive 4 - PLANNING WISELY * Creating Your Productivity Journal * Maximizing the Power of Your Productivity Journal * The Glass Jar: Rocks, Pebbles, Sand, and Water * Chunk, Block, and Tackle * Ready, Fire, Aim! 5 - TACKLING PROCRASTINATION * Why We Procrastinate * Nine Ways to Overcome Procrastination * Eat That Frog! 6 - CRISIS MANAGEMENT * When the Storm Hits * Creating a Plan * Executing the Plan * Lessons Learned 7 - ORGANIZING YOUR WORKSPACE * De-Clutter * Managing Workflow * Dealing with E-mail * Using Calendars * 8 - DELEGATING MADE EASY * When to Delegate * To Whom Should You Delegate? * How Should You Delegate? * Keeping Control * The Importance of Full Acceptance 9 - SETTING A RITUAL * What is a Ritual? * Ritualizing Sleep, Meals, and Exercise * Example Rituals * Using Rituals to Maximize Time 10 - MEETING MANAGEMENT * Deciding if a Meeting is Necessary * Using the PAT Approach * Building the Agenda * Keeping Things on Track * Making Sure the Meeting Was Worthwhile 11 - ALTERNATIVES TO MEETINGS * Instant Messaging and Chat Rooms * Teleconferencing * E-mail Lists and Online Groups * Collaboration Applications 12 - WRAPPING UP * Words from the Wise * Review of Parking Lot * Lessons Learned * Completion of Action Plans and Evaluations ADDITIONAL COURSE DETAILS: Nexus Humans Time Management training program is a workshop that presents an invigorating mix of sessions, lessons, and masterclasses meticulously crafted to propel your learning expedition forward.
