This course also introduces participants to a behavioural and attitudinal checklist to boost existing levels of employee engagement.
Methodology
A random sample of 79 Supervisors from your industry completed a survey to identify leadership gaps and/or weaknesses in the existing frontline management course. A team of organisational psychologists and leadership consultants extracted statistically significant data from the surveys to build this course.
Outline of the Advanced Supervisory Skills Course:
Positive and Negative Workplace Behaviours
Supervisors need to be constantly vigilant of positive and negative behaviours in the workplace.
- Review an A-Z of positive and negative workplace behaviours
- Environmental impact of different workplace behaviours
- Intervention techniques
- Removing perceived injustices and moving on
Role Integration Techniques
72% of supervisors felt a disconnection between their supervisor's role and the organisation's direction. 78% of supervisors were unaware of the organisation's strategic objectives.
- Understanding how your role fits with the organisational objectives
- Feeling comfortable aligning tasks with strategic objectives
- Feeling comfortable in the company of direct reports, managers and peers
Courageous Conversations and Performance Management
No surprises here. 79% of respondents disliked or strongly disliked the performance management part of their role. Participants felt very uncomfortable having performance management discussions.
- Understanding the importance of courageous conversations
- Tallying the impact of rewards and recognition

- The appreciative inquiry problem solving model
- Creating the environment that attracts great ideas
- Rewarding ideas and thinking thoughts through
Emotional Intelligence and Team Building
EI was not a stated need. But the statistically significant data picked up an EI gap in team development. This module will help participants interact better with each other.
