Objectives of the module
This module gives the leaner the opportunity to understand the role of a leader / supervisor. For an untrained supervisor the first week on the job is almost always an eye-opening experience. Having observed their own supervisors in action, these novices often have a general idea of what’s involved. However, what they don’t know is what supervising feels like. Supervising today’s work-force takes special skill and understanding. Supervisors need strategies they can master quickly. Strategies that will help them deal with the many problems and issues that inevitably arise.
They want people skills they can put to immediate use—and then build on as they gain in experience and take on more responsibility.
This qualification will contribute to learners’ personal development, confidence and productivity in the workplace.
Why choose this qualification?
On successful completion, learners may progress to further modules in the “Leadership Fundamentals” Course.
