urning Managers into Confident, Capable Leaders

Six practical half-day management training sessions delivered over 12 months

Being promoted into management does not automatically equip someone with the confidence, skills or self-awareness to lead people effectively.

TARGET is a practical management development programme designed to help new, aspiring and existing managers understand their impact, communicate more effectively and handle the everyday realities of managing people.

Delivered as six half-day sessions over 12 months, the programme gives participants time between each session to apply their learning in the workplace, reflect on what happened and build lasting changes in their management practice.

The TARGET Programme

T – Tune In

Understanding the difference between managing and leading, recognising personal strengths and identifying areas for development.

A – Acclimatise

Developing self-awareness, understanding different communication and working styles, and adapting your approach to others.

R – Reality

Building the confidence to hold meaningful workplace conversations, listen effectively and give clear, constructive feedback.

G – Get It

Exploring mindset, beliefs and behaviours, and understanding how these can influence performance, confidence and decision-making.

E – Emotional Intelligence

Recognising and managing emotions, understanding what motivates people and responding more effectively in challenging situations.

T – Transition

Bringing the learning together and developing a more confident, adaptable and transformational approach to leadership.

TARGET is suitable for:

• Aspiring or newly appointed managers

• Team leaders and supervisors

• Technical specialists who have moved into people-management roles

• Existing managers who have received little formal management training

• Managers who would benefit from greater confidence, consistency and self-awareness

Why is TARGET different?

TARGET is not a one-off training event filled with theory that is quickly forgotten.

The programme is grounded in real workplace situations and encourages participants to practise what they learn between sessions. Its 12-month structure provides space for reflection, application and continued development, helping new behaviours become part of everyday management practice.

For organisations, this means developing managers who are more confident, capable and consistent in the way they communicate, make decisions and lead their people.
