New Manager Programme

The New Manager Programme aims to help staff who are new to managing people to put a plan in place and give them some frameworks and techniques to manage their new team.  It will provide newly appointed managers, or those moving into management roles, the key knowledge and skills necessary for success in their new roles.  Working in a hybrid or a remote environment, can bring a different challenge for many public servants as they take on a new managerial role.  This course will include guidance on how to create a collaborative, motivating environment and communicate more effectively from a remote setting.
