Communicate with Candour

It's natural for most managers to want to be liked but if you focus too much on building friendly relationships with the people in your team, it can mean it's harder to be direct when the moment requires it. We'll show you how to get the best of both worlds.

Influence Anyone

If you tend to rely on one or two ‘go-to’ influencing styles when managing people, the chances are that you won’t compel people half as much as if you thought a bit about the other person’s perspective and changed your tactics to suit.

Lead Difficult Conversations

Diluting the content of a difficult message to avoid discomfort serves no-one. Everyone wants to know where they stand, so if things are about to change, the results aren’t good or the feedback’s particularly hard hitting, you owe it to the people in your team to be up front and honest.
