Overview
The Leading your team and running effective meetings course is training in running meetings and in team leadership: for two days, face-to-face, you learn to unite your team members through useful and mobilising meetings. The audience indicated is new and experienced managers in hospitality and catering. This course is commissioned by your organisation, in-company and on quotation, from Excelia Business School's Executive Education Centre.
Why choose the Leading your team and running effective meetings course?
The course aims to strengthen the cohesion, performance and engagement of a team in demanding operational environments. Rather than multiplying meetings, it works on how to prepare them, structure them and lead them, so that every collective session serves to unite.
You clarify your managerial stance, the structure of your collective sessions and the methods that make it possible to unite people around day-to-day priorities.
Meetings that mobilise your team
Beforehand, you learn to prepare and structure a meeting and to identify the roles and responsibilities of each of the stakeholders. During the meeting, you adapt the way you lead to the personalities present; day to day, you spot weak signals and value what works.
Two days for new and experienced managers alike
The course lasts two days, or 14 hours, face-to-face, with an active and participative pedagogy made up of practical scenarios, practical exercises and individual self-assessments. If conflicts are your priority, a related course makes it possible to resolve conflict situations within your team.
