The ILM Level 5 Award in Leadership and Management has been designed to give practicing or aspiring middle managers a solid foundation for their formal development in this role. This is a concise qualification, made up of two units and delivered over three sessions.
In the first unit, 'Becoming an Effective Leader‘, you will explore the nature of the middle management role and both evaluate and develop your ability to set direction, communicate, delegate and motivate. You will also learn the basic theory of emotional intelligence and the effect of emotions on your performance and the performance of your team.
In the second unit, ‘Managing Stress and Conflict in the Workplace‘, you will explore techniques for identifying, preventing and resolving conflicts within your team. This module also focuses on stress management within the organization and requires you to assess your ability - and your organisation‘s ability - to recognize and manage stress effectively.

Suitable for either practicing or aspiring middle managers looking to gain a professionally recognized qualification.
Benefits of attending:

  • Use theories of emotional intelligence to review the effect of emotions on own and others‘ performance
  • Review and develop your ability to set direction and communicate this to others
