You will leave this training with the skills and tools necessary to develop a plan for addressing challenges and opportunities on your own virtual and remote teams.

The 8 Habits for Highly Effective Managers 

Are your managers real leaders?

Many leaders and managers get promoted because of their individual competencies, but struggle when it comes to leading and managing people. When managers fail, it is usually because they were unable to achieve important results. 

That failure typically stems from two causes:

  1. They manage others before managing themselves.

  2. They manage people instead of letting them manage themselves against shared expectations.

Learn the habits—manage the outcome.

The 8 Habits for Highly Effective Managers Managers is built on the framework of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People and other other impactful management philosophies.

Coaching behaviors for Managers

As you move up the leadership chain, your role steadily changes from supervisor to manager to leader. Supervisors are very task oriented and the focus of their work is ensuring that outputs are met in a particular timeframe. Managers and leaders however are more focused on empowering their team members to take responsibility for their own outputs.

In the modern work environment, this requires managers and leaders to be coaches and mentors, usually to their team members but also occasionally to their colleagues as well. Essentially, coaching is about bringing out the best in team members rather than making them work harder or faster.

Training + Development

Accelerate Your Managers’ Success With A Transformative Management Training Program

Most new managers struggle, and the cost of that is significant: high turnover, low morale, subpar productivity, and more. It’s because most don’t receive the essential management skills training to succeed. 40 Pillars has created a transformational leadership training program for new managers and those who need to sharpen the essential skills needed to build positive relationships with team members, inspire engagement, and drive productivity.

58% OF MANAGERS said they didn't receive any management training.

98% OF MANAGERS feel they would benefit from more training.

DON’T LET YOUR MANAGERS RELY ON FAULTY INSTINCTS THAT UNDERMINE MORALE AND PRODUCTIVITY. GIVE THEM VITAL MANAGEMENT SKILLS TRAINING.

Do your employees understand and embrace your organization’s culture? 

Do they contribute to your mission from day one? 

What kind of first impression does your on-boarding process give new hires?

Well-designed, instructional design training programs—including workshops, seminars, and webinars—and team-building exercises can:

  • Increase productivity

  • Boost loyalty and morale

  • Reduce dissatisfaction and turnover

  • Increase ROI
