New Manager Toolkit

Newly promoted managers often struggle with the transition from individual contributor roles to management positions. Many lack necessary skills and face challenges in leading teams, managing resources, and contributing to organizational goals effectively. 

To address these challenges, we aim to equip new managers with the immediate, actionable tools and skills required to lead effectively and achieve team targets, providing a more targeted and hands-on approach compared to traditional management education. 

The New Manager Toolkit is a flexible and comprehensive training solution specifically designed for new managers. Unlike traditional MBAs or other academic management courses, which provide a broad theoretical background, this programme is a crash course delivering the essential tools new managers need to produce immediate results.
