Course/learning journey

Introduction to Management

As we move forward in our careers, many of us enjoy the challenge of managing other people. But just how easy is it to go from being focused on our own progress to being responsible for others? It requires a shift of focus and a new set of skills – this will require a two-way learning journey with their team. New managers will need to learn about the difference between management and leadership, gain insight into different management styles, and work through useful models that will set them on the road to success.
