“Be a leader, not a boss” 

A team leader should be someone who provides guidance, instruction, direction and leadership to a group of individuals for the purpose of achieving results. The role requires so much more than simply tasking others.
We have developed this course to assist team leaders in gaining a better grasp of the roles and responsibilities expected of them. We aim to help team leaders to recognise they have accountability for the performance of the team, and to provide them with the techniques and tools to be able to create high functioning teams.
This course is both practical and informative. We assist participants to develop the confidence to take ownership of their team leader role, and to enhance their motivation to organise and support their teams to deliver great results.
