Course Outlines
Topic 1: The Roles and Responsibilities of Leader / Manager / Supervisor
The Leader/Manager/Supervisor is perhaps one of the most underestimated people in an organisation. The position is one, which demands a wide range of managerial skills – communication, leadership, delegation, time management, motivation, to name but a few.
Topic 2: An Introduction to Communication Skills
One of the most important skills of any team leader is the ability to communicate. To be a good communicator requires skills.
Topic 3: Understanding Body Language
A significant percentage of the messages we send out to others is through our body language. An essential skill of the manager/supervisor is communication, and to be a good communicate we need to understand the effects and the power of body language.
Topic 4: The Concept of Total Quality Service
This module is based on the principle that a customer is any person for whom we provide a product or service. If we think about this idea carefully, we can establish that there are many people for whom we provide a service, but who we do not recognize as ‘customers’. These people are usually our work colleagues or others within the organisation, although it could be absolutely ANYONE we come into contact with.
Topic 5: A Guide to Decision Making
Taking decisions is a function of all leaders, and managers/supervisors will need to be able to approach the task in a logical way.
Topic 6: An introduction to leadership
A Manager/Supervisor is a leader. This module is an introduction to leadership skills, and the first of three in this pack. It begins to establish the skills needed to function as a leader, relevant to the role of a supervisor.
Topic 7: Styles of Leadership
The Manager/Supervisor will need to be able to use a range of leadership skills to operate effectively. One area to be aware of is their own style of leadership, and that a variety of styles can be utilised to meet particular needs, and specific situations.
Topic 8: The Task and The Team
The role leader can be broken down into two major elements: the TASK and the TEAM. This module encourages delegates to think of themselves, and their roles, in terms of their commitment to these two factors. The balance of one against the other is represented in the form of graph- a weakness in either area will have a detrimental effect on the performance of the leader.
Topic 9: An Exercise in Team Leadership and Team Working
This is simply a vehicle on which delegates are given the opportunity to put into practice, and observe, the leadership skills learned in other modules. It should be used during the latter stages of a management or leadership program.
Topic 10: Use and Abuse of Time
This is a short module on time management. As a manager/supervisor, there is a responsibility to make effective use not only of your own time, but also that of others within the team.
Topic 11: The Time Management Graph
Everything we do can be thought of in terms of two factors- how important is it, and how urgent is it. Important refers to the quality factor, and urgent refers to the time factor.
The time management graph splits tasks into four categories, dependent upon the greater or lesser degree of importance and urgency applicable to each.
Topic 12: The Art of Delegation
One of the most difficult areas of a supervisor’s work, is that of delegation. By the very nature of the job, a manager/supervisor is responsible for more than he or she can personally do. They must therefore delegate work to others. Deciding on the nature and number of tasks to be delegated can cause considerable difficulty.
Topic 13: Giving Clear Instructions
The role of the supervisor involves giving instructions to others on a regular basis. Giving clear, concise instructions however for from easy.
Topic 14: Team Skills
The work of managers/supervisor inevitably involves encouraging others to work as a team. A team working together effectively will pool resources, skills and information to achieve their aims.
Topic 15: The Manager / Supervisor as A Trainer
Being a supervisor will normally involve the responsibility to develop individuals within the team. This will involve the training of others.
Training can be thought of as a three stage cycle, incorporating a planning stage, and an evaluation. The module looks at the three stages, but recommends more specific training for the implementation stage, where the manager/supervisor is to undertake delivery personally.
