Practice-oriented training

As a new manager, you have to quickly grow into your unfamiliar role and effectively take on management tasks. This proves to be one of the biggest challenges. The following key questions arise: "Should I encourage or challenge? How do I address sensitive issues or address criticism acceptably? What influence do I have and how do I shape collaboration with my employees and within the team?" At the first management level, the main focus is on gaining confidence in leadership skills.
