COSTS
To get the most out of your business you need to get the most out of your staff.
Our Managing People Course teaches Managers techniques to inspire and motivate staff whilst exceeding the needs of the business.
MANAGERS NEEDING TO DRIVE GROWTH
Many teams underperform not because of a lack of effort, but because their managers lack critical leadership and people management skills. Without the right capability, your managers may struggle to motivate their teams, address poor performance, or navigate difficult conversations, and this costs your business in engagement, productivity, and overall growth.
At Elite Training, we turn optimise managers into more confident, high-performing leaders through bespoke people management training delivered in your office or live online.
WHY THIS MATTERS
- Poor leadership costs: Managers who don’t communicate, coach, or resolve conflict can erode team morale and performance.
- Unprepared for change: In today’s fast-moving world, managers need to adapt - to business shifts, reorganisations, or new ways of working.
- Risk of losing talent: Without effective management, your best people may disengage or leave.
- Succession risk: If future leaders aren’t developed effectively, you risk a leadership gap in critical roles.
WHAT WE DO
We deliver a management training course that’s not just “tick-the-box” training but a strategic solution to your leadership challenges:
- Custom to you: We don’t do off-the-shelf. Every course is built around your organisation’s real problems, not generic theory.
- Real-life scenarios: Through interactive exercises and business simulations, we recreate the tough situations your managers really face.
- Highly practical: We teach how to handle conflict, coach for performance, give feedback - not just what theory says.
- Flexible delivery: Run it in person at your premises, or live remotely - whichever suits you.
- Scalable commitment: From a one-day workshop to a multi-day, long-term leadership programme - whatever meets your needs.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
This course is designed for:
- New managers who’ve been promoted without formal training.
- Existing managers not confident when motivating, coaching, or developing their team.
- Teams facing performance issues, conflict, or turnover.
- Organisations who want to build a leadership pipeline and improve succession planning.
