Course description
Frontline Leader Impact
Frontline managers make up nearly 40% of the manager population. Preparing them to lead effectively is essential.
Leadership effectiveness is the #1 concern for organizations of all sizes, across industries and around the world. The challenge? Companies have traditionally been forced to compromise between quality, cost, and flexibility when considering frontline leadership development solutions. Until now.
Support Your Frontline Leadership with Targeted Development
Almost 60% of managers never receive training for their first leadership role. This frontline training can correct that. Over the course of 6 weeks, this interactive, engaging online learning experience gives high-potential talent the confidence and skills they need to be successful in a frontline leadership role, increase personal effectiveness, and build relationships to get work done.
Who should attend?
Managers and supervisors of individual contributors, first-level or first-time managers who are newer to their roles, or anyone who is preparing to move into a first-level manager role. Especially those who cannot travel for training but still want a truly impactful experience.
Our frontline leadership training program delivers a completely reimagined online leadership development program experience to transform frontline managers into the leaders organizations need.
This program brings together:
- Our world-class, research-driven content and experienced faculty
- An intuitive online learning platform
Through the use of self-assessments and feedback from peers and the moderator, participants gain a detailed picture of their personal strengths and challenges.
Training content
Our online frontline leadership training course develops the 6 crucial competencies for frontline leadership success:
- Self-Awareness: Remaining aware of one’s strengths and development needs is critical and enables frontline leaders to make more informed decisions and interact effectively with others.
- Learning Agility: Seeking out diverse experiences, applying lessons learned to new challenges, and being able to adapt to the environment allows frontline managers to swiftly recognize, analyze, and address problems.
- Communication: Listening, speaking, and writing clearly and consistently for maximum impact with people at all levels in the organization is another critical skill for frontline leadership success.
- Political Savvy: Relating well to people, developing strong working relationships with managers and superiors, managing internal stakeholders, and navigating organizational politics to achieve goals are all important frontline leadership skills that can be honed.
- Motivating Others: Inspiring commitment by recognizing and rewarding the contributions of others and guiding direct reports to complete assignments, especially when goals are unclear or ambiguous, enables first-level managers to get the work done through their teams.
- Influencing Outcomes: Understanding and persuading effectively to gain cooperation and get things done to achieve a desired outcome is also essential to succeed and another key objective of our frontline leadership training course.
