Understanding the Senior Manager Role

Who should attend?

This course is for managers who want to assess their leadership abilities and explore some realistic options to improve their performance.  Pitched at level 5, this course is a core unit of the ILM Level 5 Award in Leadership & Management and is aimed at existing or aspiring middle/senior managers.

Why should you attend?

Multidimensional leaders understand that great leadership requires a range of competencies and skills, including becoming more self-aware and emotionally intelligent.

From crafting a vision, building alignment and championing execution, to utilising a range of leadership and communications styles, this short course is unashamedly all about you.  It offers you a chance to explore the concept of leadership in detail, your responsibilities and, most importantly, where you need to focus to improve.

The mantra of this course is: Don’t be a one-dimensional leader.

Course outline

During this course you will learn to:

  • Evaluate your own leadership styles & learn to adapt to situations and people
  • Use theories of emotional intelligence to gauge the effect on performance
  • Create a vision, build alignment and champion execution
  • Motivate, delegate and empower others to improved performance

Assessment

For those seeking recognition for their learning, this course is based on the ILM unit: Becoming an Effective Leader. Successful completion of the assignment will result in the achievement in 5 credits at Level 5.

Course outcomes

This short course offers you an opportunity to look closely at your own skills, characteristics and current performance levels, as well as give you the chance to identify some key development opportunities.  You will exit this course being more self-aware and know what you need to focus on to develop your leadership performance.

For those seeking to measure their behaviours more closely, ask about completing the DiSC profiling.

Progression

For those seeking to achieve a qualification at Level 5, you will need to achieve a further 1 credit for the ILM Award or 8 credits for the ILM Certificate.
