Collaborate

As expectations of work have changed over the last 20 years, so has the role of the manager. No longer just the expert or decision maker, managers now need to act as facilitator-in-chief, building cultures that encourage creativity through collaboration and empower every voice in the room.

You will:

Consider what collaboration looks like when done well and the potential impact of getting the best from everyone when solving problems
Experience how the wisdom of the crowd consistently surpasses individual talent
Be able to use a simple collaboration framework to complete a task with your team
Understand the thinking traps that get in the way of collaboration and know how to manage them when they occur

Innovate

With constant pressure to solve problems and move on, managers risk using sticking plaster solutions to cover deep-rooted issues. Being able to stop, analyse and innovate is vital to avoid you getting bogged down by recurring issues and see the wood for the trees.

Free Your Creativity

It is often assumed that creativity is something you’ve either got or you haven’t. This means that many of us miss out on the opportunities that come from seeing things differently. In truth, we all have the potential to be creative, to push the boundaries and to challenge our thinking.

Fantastic Facilitation

The aim of a facilitator is to create an open and energised environment within which people can share, challenge, generate and plan. To master it, you’ll need the awareness of a conductor, the spontaneity of an improvisor and the gravitas of a head teacher. Get ready to practise.
