We are delighted to announce our third cohort of First Line Management (FLM) training for 2024, taking place on September 3rd and 4th. We have had over 350 people complete our FLM training so far.

First-line management training is designed to equip new or aspiring first-line managers—often known as supervisors, team leaders, or front-line managers—with the skills, knowledge, and competencies they need to effectively lead and manage their teams. These managers are responsible for overseeing the day-to-day operations and performance of a group of employees who are directly involved in producing products or delivering services.

Importance of First-Line Management Training:

• Employee Retention: Well-trained first-line managers are better equipped to support and develop their teams, leading to higher job satisfaction and lower turnover rates.
• Productivity: Effective management can improve team productivity by ensuring that tasks are completed efficiently, and team members are fully engaged.
• Consistency: Training helps ensure that first-line managers across the organization follow consistent practices, leading to more uniform results and a cohesive workplace culture.

Delivery Methods:

• Workshops and Seminars: Interactive sessions that provide hands-on learning experiences.
• Online Courses: Flexible training options that can be completed at the manager’s own pace.
• On-the-Job Training: Practical experience under the guidance of more experienced managers.
• Mentoring and Coaching: Personalized support from senior leaders or external coaches to help new managers develop specific skills.

First-line management training is crucial because these managers play a pivotal role in translating organizational strategies into operational success and directly influence the day-to-day experiences of the majority of the workforce.
