Helping Managers Through Tough Times

You are here: Home » Latest News » Helping Managers Through Tough Times
We have been talking to our clients, partners, friends (and frankly anyone who’ll listen!) to find out how the current climate impacting upon managers. What we have heard consistently is that a unique climate requires a unique set of skills.
Imagine for a moment the difficulties in telling a long-standing respected member of staff that they are being made redundant then, in the next breath, having to be the inspirational, motivated leader of a disoriented and demotivated team. Cuts in staff travel costs may also mean this must be achieved at a distance. This has become the daily reality for many managers.
People have told us that huge demands are being made on managers’ personal resilience, with many feeling stressed and starting to question their own performance. Our ‘skills rescue package’ is therefore deliberately aimed at helping the individual manager through these testing times, giving them practical tools for getting back on track, in readiness for the upturn.
Matchett* are offering 5 key titles from our Leadership & Management portfolio, all of which can be delivered in sharp, 90 minute sessions or as full day courses, depending on the requirement:
The Art of Remote Management – best practice for leading geographically-spread teams
Coping With Stress – building your own personal and emotional resilience
Critical Thinking – how to make that tough decision (and also make sure it’s the right one)
Running meetings – ensuring your people are engaged and motivated so your meeting objectives can be met
Tough Conversations – delivering difficult messages with respect and confidence
One thing is for sure, what constituted effective management 12 months ago, is not necessarily as effective now.
