The 7 Things that Management Training Must Cover

Management training in Singapore and the region: bosses and HR Managers have asked me what topics must a good management program cover?   Based on full-time training since 2001, there are at least 7 things that all management training must cover:
  1. How to Look for Solutions to Manpower issues without extra hiring
  2. Getting staff to take ownership for their work, not excuses
  3. Increasing the productivity of office and operational workers without $
  4. Converting all dis-engaged staff into highly committed team members
  5. How to Present your message to the people so that you're not seen as a messenger but a leader that adds value
  6. Managing from the heart and how to go the extra mile to serve the team
  7. Asking questions so as to coach and mentor staff and not just give instructions and expect compliance
On top of that, management training must also cover 4 soft skills:
  1. How to set your own goals and help your team members motivate and work towards the organization's goals
  2. Persuasion, Influence and Negotiation skills
  3. Reading a person like a book
  4. Dealing with Difficult People
Whether you're managing one person or 100 persons, working in a international or local company, if you too want to be a real manager and not a messenger, now is the time.  Get an experienced management trainer to come down to your office to conduct an in-house training with 60% 'discount' (PIC 60% funding).  The most popular program is How to Be a Better Manager.  Text to Andy Ng at 8201-4347 for details or click here.  Related articles:

"Gentlemen", continued the Officer, "Every time the training gets tougher, one thought comes to your mind, 'Why Must I Serve National Service?' "My answer to you is, 'If Not You, Then Who Else?'" Wow!  What a powerful phrase!  If Not You, Who Else may mean: You are the most suitable person, and we can't find anyone better than you.  This is appreciation at the highest level How can you push this responsibility to someone else? I am making a request to you specifically, please don't reject my request Can you find me another person more suitable than you? Please refer me anot...
