Programme Overview
One of the major transitions you will experience as a new manager is moving from being an individual contributor to someone who delivers by working with and through others. This requires you to reframe how you see your role in creating and adding value, and pick up new skills.
You may find yourself asking these questions:
- How has my role changed, and what do I need to pay attention to?
- How do I motivate, engage, and develop the people I lead?
- How do I manage and communicate effectively with my supervisor and staff?
Designed to support new managers, the LTLP will help you appreciate the requirements and context of your new role, and grow your capabilities to lead and learn more effectively.

clarity on your strengths and developmental needs, and recognise your

learned from each other."
"I
have learnt a lot of frameworks and theories from this programme that are useful
in my leadership journey"

programme was well designed to have check-in sessions with spaces in between

and rich learning experience, which allowed for check-ins and time away from
work to reflect on my role as a manager."

course inspired me to want to learn more to become a better manager."
