You will learn the 4 essentials of being an effective manager & leader which are: Being brilliant at the basics; Being competent and knowledgeable; Leading from the front and managing from the back; Building Relationships.We will also look at the role and responsibilities of being a manager, as well adapting your mindset to be open to learn and grow. We share some top tips when stepping into management and you will be tasked to find a mentor to support you through your journey.Managing your Team:Hospitality is not a one man show - Teamwork is essential to deliver true hospitality.In this fundamental we will look at what a team is and how you can maximise its potential and become high performing. You will learn how to put the right people in the right role to get the best out of them and you will also be introduced to our unique management style that is perfect for hospitality, Shape Shifter Leadership.Managing your Workload:In this fundamental will learn how to prioritise your tasks effectively; action them accordingly; learn how to delegate and how to manage those time parasites that eat away at your day. You will be introduced to our priority scale which will ensure you are doing the right task at the right time. We will also introduce you to the 4Ds of Time Management  which, if used correctly, can help you gain time rather than lose it. When it comes to delegation, you will be given clear steps to follow to help you delegate effectively.Managing Challenging Conversations:Nobody likes to have them but they are a part of life and of management. Having challenging conversation is an area that most, if not all new managers fear. Why? Because they don't know how to have them. The key is to learn how to handle these conversations in a way that produces a better outcome: less pain for you, and less pain for the person you are talking to. In this fundamental, you will learn some techniques to approach and handle difficult or awkward conversations at work while also keeping your relationships intact. You will understand the difference between an appropriate and inappropriate request and how you can say "no" to them.Managing Performance:Managing performance is all about finding a way to motivate the people on your team, encouraging them to do their best, and unlocking their potential to develop and maximise their own performance through something we like to call “levelling up”. You will learn how to set SMART Goals, how to action them and how to follow up.This course has been written for hospitality people, by hospitality people. We haven't overcomplicated it and use scenarios and exercises that are relevant to your role. Enjoy!
