Services - Management Development Essentials Programme

The Management Development Essentials Programme is designed to support organisations improve line management capability. Whilst it is focused on managing performance, the skills that line managers will develop are transferable across all areas and requirements of people management.

The programme is structured around 3 Pillars and contains a number of modules. The three Pillars are;

Systems & process
This is the foundational Pillar focused on the performance review process

Setting exceptions & standards
This Pillar contains 2 modules that look at two key ways that managers & leaders need to set expectations and standards in terms of work, behaviours and values. The focus of the modules within this Pillar are on writing objectives and job descriptions.

The Art of Communication
The focus of this Pillar is on helping managers and leaders to develop their coaching skills and their effectiveness at having courageous conversation, to support them in managing their people better.
As part of this Pillar, once the main part of the programme has been completed, 121 coaching is offered to delegates to help support them with their individual development needs and to embed their learning.

The programme is designed to be delivered through a series of virtual and in person modules, and can be adapted to meet specific organisational requirements.

E-J's coaching has helped me to consider some of my underlying beliefs and principles concerning my areas of focus as well as also considering the application of tools and skills available to me. This has been extremely beneficial - the coaching has been directly applicable to my day-to-day work and I can also see how it is positively shaping my own longer term development.

Help with personal goal setting has been a particularly significant area of conversation for me. E-J's coaching has enabled me to clarify my own understanding of my goals and personal objectives in a clearer way than I feel I would have achieved alone. The coaching has also supported progress towards these goals and helped me to identify and address personal challenges in a useful and positive way. As a result I have progressed against my goals in a much faster and perhaps deeper way than I would have otherwise achieved without it.

E-J's style of coaching has been personable, positive and enjoyable. I highly recommend her coaching without reservation.

E-J has been a fantastic help

Jenny, Director

She is so approachable and really knows her stuff. She took the time to talk through all the issues, asking the important questions to guide the conversation. She then walked me through step-by-step to make sure I had the tools I needed to have the difficult conversations.

Owner/Director, Nutshell Accounts

I highly recommend E-J if you are struggling with anything employee related (or even better - before you start struggling!)

Jenny, Owner/Director, Nutshell Accounts

E-J was hugely helpful in advising on various HR aspects and I learnt a lot from her in the process. She is straightforward, supportive, and focussed on making a positive impact. I also really enjoyed working with her! (or full-stop if you prefer)
