Build your confidence as a supervisor and learn how to establish authority while maintaining positive working relationships. Ideal for people who have recently moved from working alongside colleagues to managing them, this practical workshop on establishing authority takes place on Tuesday 19th January.
What to expect
Moving into a supervisory role can bring new challenges, particularly when you now manage people who were previously your colleagues.
This workshop on establishing your authority will help you navigate that transition with greater confidence. You’ll explore what your organisation, team and customers expect from you as a supervisor.
You’ll also consider your existing relationships with team members and how these may need to change. This course is here to help you understand that balance between authority, responsibility and accountability.
Leadership styles can also affect how your team responds to you. That’s why it’s important to consider your current approach and learn when to adapt your style to establish authority in an appropriate and effective way.
Avoid perceptions of favouritism and explore the ways you can maintain your professional boundaries. This will help you to avoid being drawn into conflicts or inappropriate situations.
As you’ll learn, clear expectations are essential for effective team management. Therefore, you’ll need to know how to set clear goals for teams and individuals, then communicate those expectations effectively.
You’ll also develop practical techniques for handling difficult conversations with staff. These skills can help you address issues confidently, maintain professional relationships and improve performance.
By the end of the workshop, you’ll have practical techniques and tactics to establish your authority as a supervisor. You’ll also have greater confidence when clarifying expectations, managing performance and maintaining effective working relationships.
