Management and Leadership Training Programs

What is a management and leadership training, and what styles of leadership does it support?

Management and leadership training course are specialized curriculum designed to help you learn new leadership techniques and refine old skills to run your team. They often times provided assistance in areas such as assertive communication, motivation methods, and coaching.  Leadership training is an essential element for all employees in a supervisory role.

Leaders are tasked with challenging their teams to maximize their skills and attain their full potential. The result of this is to meet company goals.

The fundamentals of management and leadership training help to discover your management style and about instilling core management principles such as being a role model, making an impact, focusing on the team and company vision, encouraging collaboration, and being positive.

As for leadership styles, there are three basic styles.

  1. Autocratic (aka Authoritarian) leaders are clear in their expectations, tell employees precisely how they want a job done, and make choices without consulting others.
  2. Delegative leaders allow their employees to make their own decisions. A delegative leader is still ultimately responsible for the decisions made.
  3. Participative leaders provide a mix of the two other styles and encourage comments and suggestions from their team members. The whole team, including the leader, comes together to make decisions.

All three leadership styles have their pros and cons. For example, autocratic leaders are remarkable when catastrophe strikes. They are great problem solvers and have a “get it done” attitude. On the other hand, autocratic leaders tend to not foster positive morale and a sense of team spirit in the same way as a delegative manager does. Delegative managers may build a wonderfully close team; however, they may discover several of their employees don’t take full responsibility and initiative for their work.

  • Increased productivity.
