Program Description:

Frontline managers are the managerial glue of a business, responsible for many critical day-to-day operations. They’re often an organisation’s largest population of leaders.

While 2022 Human Capital Management, in collaboration with Skillsoft, India, conducted a study on 252 organisations, and it was found that leadership development initiatives often focus on mid and executive-level leaders while ignoring the developmental needs of first-time, front-line managers.

To rectify such leadership limitations, it is imperative that organisations need to pay attention to frontline leadership and formalise new ways of frontline development, Investing and supporting new front-line managers to make them better-performing managers, and thus promoting employee engagement.

The two days program will be facilitated through interactive discussion and topic-by-topic exposition, self-instruction exercises, case studies, role plays, and psychometric tests, interspersed with lecture sessions.
